## Definition and Usage

The <xsl:element> element is used to create an element node in the output document.

<!-- Content:template -->
</xsl:element>

## Attributes

Attribute | Value | Description

name | name | Required. Specifies the name of the element to be created (the value of the name attribute can be set to an expression that is computed at run-time, like this: <xsl:element name="{$country}" />
namespace | URI | Optional. Specifies the namespace URI of the element (the value of the namespace attribute can be set to an expression that is computed at run-time, like this: <xsl:element name="{$country}" namespace="{$someuri}"/>

### Example 1

Create a "singer" element that contains the value of each artist element:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:for-each select="catalog/cd">
<xsl:element name="singer">
<xsl:value-of select="artist" />
</xsl:element>
<br />
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

View the XML file, View the XSL file, and View the result.
