YOU could use 

<input type='text' name='{@name}'/>

Subject: [xsl] How to put node value into an attribute


I am trying to get the value of an XML node into an attribute of a tag 
that I am generating in XSL.  The idea is something like this.


<input type='text' name='<xsl:value-of select="@name"/>'/>


Where the xsl:value-of (this is within a template) becomes translated 
into the value of the input attribute in the output.  This does not 
work, however.  I get this from xalan.

Line 18; Column -1; XSLT Error 
(javax.xml.transform.TransformerConfigurationException): 
javax.xml.transform.TransformerException: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: 
Use "&lt;" for "<" in attribute values.

What is the correct way to do this kind of thing?
