Re: [xsl] Generating new element whose name is not known at the stage ofXSL composition

 The name attribute of xsl:element is interpreted as an attribute value
template. So if you want the expression to be evaluated it should be
surrounded by {}. Try:

<xsl:element name="{@name}"/>

      of XSL composition


How to convert an attribute belonging to an element to another
independent element?

Specifically, I wanna obtain <a/> from <element name="a"/>.
(the value for @name is varying)

I tried the followings, but failed.
...
<xsl:variable name="elemName" select="@name"/>
<xsl:element name="$elemName"/>
...

Is the variable not allowed for @name of xsl:element? Then, how can I
solve this?

Thanks,

Hyun Sung Chang
