RE: Adding the child nodes as attributes to the parent

Very confusing problem description, as your elements are called "attribute"
(at least you didn't name your attributes "element"!)

You didn't say what part of the problem you found difficult, so short of
writing the whole code for you (not something I do!) it's hard to know
exactly where you need help. 

Converting <Element type="A"> to <A-Element> can be done using

<xsl:element name="{@type}-Element">

Converting the <attribute> elements into attributes can be done using

<xsl:for-each select="@*">
  <xsl:attribute name="{@name}">
    <xsl:value-of select="{@value}"/>
