don't mention if you are using W3C-XSL or MS-XSL, so I've included below an
example of both: person.xsl = W3C-XSL person.msxsl = Microsoft XSL I've needed
to do this myself in one of my text-based outputs. In each stylesheet you can
see each implementation's access to the name of the current node. I hope this
helps. .......... Ken T:\FTEMP>type person.xml    Ben 5 Ireland  T:\FTEMP>type
person.xsl               :     T:\FTEMP>call xsl person.xml person.xsl
