The source XML would help, but you probably want something like:

<xsl:template match="*">
   <tr>
     <td colspan="2">
       <xsl:value-of select="local-name()"/>
<!-- you probably want to apply-templates on ancestor-or-self to get the 
XPath to element -->
     </
   </tr>
   <xsl:apply-templates select="@*"/>
</


<xsl:template match="@*">
   <tr>
     <td>
       <xsl:value-of select="local-name()"/>
<!-- you probably want to apply-templates on ancestor-or-self to get the 
XPath to element -->
     </td>
     <td>
       <xsl:value-of select="."/>
     </td>
   </tr>
</

best,
