Re: applying templates to an attribute

I find the following very useful and simple.
( BTW $output is a parameter)

xml:

John <alt executive="is creating" other="has created" another="will create"/>
a new product.

xsl:

   <xsl:template match="alt">
     <xsl:value-of select="@*[name()=$output]"/>
   </xsl:template>

But I cannot put any markup in the content, like if I want
John <i>will</i> create a new product.

Any suggestions?

John
  <alt>
    <executive>is creating</executive>
    <other>has created</other>
    <another><i>will</i> create</another>
  </alt>
a new product.

<xsl:template match="alt">
  <xsl:apply-templates select="*[name()=$output]"/>
</xsl:template>

Cheers,
Wendell
