It was actuallly putting the string {count(*)} as the value of colspan.
I did find something that works though:
<xsl:attribute
name="COLSPAN"><xsl:eval>selectSingleNode("column-header").childNodes.length</xsl:eval></xsl:attribute>
This is using the XML DOM Reference from the microsoft site:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?URL=/library/psdk/xmlsdk/xmls6g53.htm
A quick question about this XML DOM Reference- is the syntax in there
specific to Microsoft and IE? Or can this be used with any parser? It
doesn't say on they site...

Check out the XPath function count(). I seem to remember you're using
IE5 MSXML1, so it may be called something else.
http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath#function-count
The following should do the trick.
<td valign="center" colspan="{count(*)}"> ... </td>

That depends what you want the output to look like. You
can count the two element types separately.
<td valign="center"
colspan="{count(upper-left) + count(mh)}"> ... </td>
