RE: Question: rules in a XSLT document

[Linda van den Brink <lvdbrink@xxxxxxx>]

To get the value of a source tree node into an attribute value of a result
tree node, you can use a syntax with curly braces. So this should work: 

  <xsl:template match="title">
    <meta name="{.}" content="text"/>
  </xsl:template>

Subject: Question: rules in a XSLT document


Hello again! 
I'm sorry to ask you questions that must seem easy but I didn't find the
answer 
in the XSL faq, and I'm really lost for this one:

I want to transform a XML document into another one.
My problem is about a tag I want to include in my final document.


my initial document looks like :
  <title>
    this is the title
  </title>


I want my final document to look like:  
  
    <meta name="this is the title" content="text"/>


So I tried this rule of transformation in my XSLT document : 

  <xsl:template match="title">
    <meta name="<xsl:value-of select="."/>" content="text"/>
  </xsl:template>

and it obviously doesn't work... really, I can't understand which way I
should
write my transformation rule to obtain what I've explained above.

It would be great if someone could explain me!
Thank you !
