How to put node value into an attribute

2003-04-29 22:11:09
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?
