Thanx John.Can you or someone tell me why this is acting strange?.A very
simple xml but really taking my time.I guess Im missing something here.

This is my xml

<years title="year" century="20th" month="April" Day="Thursday"></years>

My xsl

<xsl:template match="/">
	&lt;<xsl:value-of select="@title"/>&gt;2000&lt;/<xsl:value-of
select="@title"/>&gt;  
	<xsl:element name="{@title}">2000</xsl:element>
</xsl:template> 

This gives me an error that "Name contains invalid characters" but if I give
the template match as 'years' it's displaying
   <year>2000<year> 2000

Can anyone please tell me what's happening here?.Isnt / denotes the node
tree root?
