 I don't work with IE 5.0 for XSL. However, the problem is that you are
outputting <H1> and </H1> as part of a text node. You might try
including
disable-output-escaping="yes"
on your xsl:value-of elements so that they look like this:
<xsl:value-of select="//Name/@NameBeginTag"
disable-output-escaping="yes" />
This works for me with a W3C parser (xalan).
The basic problem here is that you are assembling a text node which you
may really want to look like an element node with a child text node.
This might work better for you. It eliminates the < > stuff as
well and ensures that the end tag matches the beginning tag:
example.xml
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?xml-stylesheet href="example.xsl" type="text/xsl"?>
<Name id="3270"
NameBeginTag="H1">
<Child>Joe</Child>
<Child>Pete</Child>
</Name>
example.xsl
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl">
<xsl:template match="/">
<HTML>
<head>
</head>
<BODY>
<xsl:for-each select="Name/Child">
<xsl:element name="{//Name/@NameBeginTag}">
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:for-each>
</BODY>
</HTML>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
