Your XML isn't well-formed. Remove the slash from the start tag of all your
xsl:when elements. Those are only needed when the element has no content
(like your xsl:value-of elements).
So,
<xsl:when test="substring(@DateReceived,6,2) = '01'"/>January</xsl:when>
should become:
<xsl:when test="substring(@DateReceived,6,2) = '01'">January</xsl:when>
You've also got a </font> end tag in there with no corresponding start tag.
Hope this helps,
Jason.

Subject: [xsl] xsl:choose / xsl:when problems
Hi...
I'm trying to come up with a solution (this hack is the best I seem capable
of at the moment) to converting
a date in the following format "YYYY-MM-DDTHH:NN:SS" to MMM dd, yyyy".
<TD>
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="substring(@DateReceived,6,2) = '01'"/>January</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="substring(@DateReceived,6,2) =
'02'"/>February</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="substring(@DateReceived,6,2) = '03'"/>March</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="substring(@DateReceived,6,2) = '04'"/>April</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="substring(@DateReceived,6,2) = '05'"/>May</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="substring(@DateReceived,6,2) = '06'"/>June</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="substring(@DateReceived,6,2) = '07'"/>July</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="substring(@DateReceived,6,2) = '08'"/>August</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="substring(@DateReceived,6,2) =
'09'"/>September</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="substring(@DateReceived,6,2) = '10'"/>October</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="substring(@DateReceived,6,2) =
'11'"/>November</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="substring(@DateReceived,6,2) =
'12'"/>December</xsl:when>
</xsl:choose>
<xsl:value-of select='substring(@DateReceived,9,2)'/> /
<xsl:value-of select='substring(@DateReceived,1,4)'/></font>
</TD>
I'm getting this error message:
***End tag 'xsl:when' does not match the start tag 'xsl:choose'. ***
Can someone see where I'm off track here? I've tried bracketing the test
statement in a variety of ways and always get the same result.
TIA
