Yes, that is more exact.

I was trying to just copy the attribute name, so I could give it a new value
as an inelegant workaround for a problem that didn't actually need a
workaround.

It has since been pointed out to me that xsl:attribute the way to do this. I
had been put off by the error messages received when I had been mistakenly
using a variable in the name attribute of xsl:attribute *without* the curly
quotes.

Thanks,

Chris
