Re: what is the most straight forward way to construct

   <xsl:if test="$element='House'">
      <xsl:element name="$element">
            <cost>100000.00</cost>
      </xsl:element>
   </xsl:if>

Have a need to build the element name and export it.

<xsl:template name="OutputElement">
<xsl:param name="elementName" /> <xsl:variable name="element" select="normalize-space($elementName)" />


If element == "House" how do I export an element name called House


Desired Output:

 <House>
	<cost>100000.00</cost>
 </House>
