yes, finally.


There is no < character in the input that XSLT sees. (It has no access to
the tags in the document, they are all resolved by the XML parser
before XSLT starts).

What there is is a z element with content " 3 " and you want to produce
the string  "<z> 3 </z>" from that so:

<xsl:template match="z">
  <xsl:text>&lt;</xsl:text>
  <xsl:value-of select="name()"/>
  <xsl:text>&gt;</xsl:text>
  <xsl:apply-templates/>
  <xsl:text>&lt;/</xsl:text>
  <xsl:value-of select="name()"/>
  <xsl:text>&gt;</xsl:text>
</xsl:template/>
