Hi Zain,
I think <td bgcolor="{Color/@hex}"> is what you're looking for.
This is not the best place to ask general XSLT questions. You may want to
check out the XSL FAQ (http://www.dpawson.co.uk/xsl/xslfaq.html), as well
as the xsl-list (http://mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list/index.html) and
their archives.
Cheers,
Gordon
