You need a $ to indicate that it's a variable, as in:
<tr class="{$rowStyle}">

I normally set up a variable, something like:

<xsl:variable name="rowStyle">
  <xsl:choose>
    <xsl:when test="position() mod 2 = 0">lightRow</xsl:when>
    <xsl:otherwise>darkRow</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:variable>
<tr class="{rowStyle}">
  <!-- other stuff -->
</tr>

It's a lot neater in XSLT 2.0 where you can use functions.
