[xsl] XML Elements to XML Attributes

["Mathieu Malaterre" <mathieu.malaterre@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

 I have a very simple question. I have currently the following xsl
script (1). But instead of creating elements I would like to create
attributes, something like:

 <entry tag="{$1}" attribute="{$2}" type="{$3}" description="{$4}"/>

 Where $1-4 are the values coming from the loop at position() respectively 1-4.
 Coming from a C/C++ world I would have created variables,
unfortunately I cannot do that with the loop. I must be missing
something trivial to be able to rewrite it correctly in XSL.

Thanks
