RE: xsl transformation

Paul,

	I can't recall if MSXML can do this, but according to:

	XPath
	http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath#section-Node-Set-Functions
	XSL
	http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xslt#dt-attribute-value-template

	you should be able to do this:

<xsl:element name="{name()}"/>

	since the name attr of the xsl:element is treated as an 'attribute
value', you have to enclose the node name() function in {}

	Oh, it looks like there's an undocumented <xsl:node-name/> in the
ie implementation, though I don't think it works in xsl:element
