Here a sample for you, using colors by attribute.

In the case statement, NMLY is being compared to a string "1", but NMLY is a float. Take away the quotation marks around "1" and "2", and do the logical comparison to floats 1 and 2 like this:

attr NMLY = 0 

zoneColor =              
    case NMLY == 1 :  
        "#ff0000"  
    case NMLY == 2 :  
        "#00ff00"  
    else:  
        "#0000ff"
