Sorry, my solution didn't put the value in a variable, but it's easily
modified so it does: 
> 
> <xsl:template match="status[.='undelivered']" 
> mode="color">#ff0000</xsl:template>
> <xsl:template match="status[.='inprogress']" 
> mode="color">#33cc33</xsl:template>
> <xsl:template match="status[.='delivered']" 
> mode="color">#33cc33</xsl:template>
> <xsl:template match="status[.='escalated']" 
> mode="color">#33cc33</xsl:template>
> 
>   <xsl:variable name="style">
>     <xsl:text>color:</xsl:text>
>     <xsl:apply-templates select="status" mode="color"/>
>   </xsl:variable>
