I have not been in touch with XSLT for a couple of years now and this simple transformation I can not describe in XSLT:
<params>
<param name="somename">value</param>
</params>


should be transformed to:

<INPUT>
  <SOMENAME>value</SOMENAME>
</INPUT

So basically the parameter "name" should be transformed to a tag in the final XML.

Can anyone give me a starting point how to do that?

You don't say if you are using XSLT 1.0 or 2.0 ... to use 1.0 use the transform() function and values for upper-case and lower-case letters.


I hope this helps.
