Thomas,



It's tempting simply to produce code that does what you want:



<xsl:template match="elem">
  <xsl:for-each select="@*">
    <xsl:text>&#xA;Attribute name=</xsl:text>
    <xsl:value-of select="name()"/>
    <xsl:text>Attribute value=</xsl:text>
    <xsl:value-of select="."/>
  </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

But to be thorough, I also have to ask where you're looking for instruction 
on XSLT, since in several respects your pseudo-code is, err, "creative". 
You've got some things right, but other things are pretty far off.



Maybe you could use a little help from the Mulberry Quick Reference to 
XSLT/XPath 1.0, which is even easier, for many syntax questions, than guessing.



You'll find it at http://www.mulberrytech.com/quickref/index.html.

For a given node I want to list all its (unknown) attribute names and 
(unknown) attribute values.



How do I code this within an XSLT stylesheet? It should be something 
similar to:



XML doc:
<elem myattr1="myval1" myattr2="myval2" myattr3="myval3">Dummy</elem>

XSLT:
...
<xsl:for-each select="\\elem[@]">
   Attribute name=<xsl:copy-of select="extractattrname(.)" />
   Attribute value=<xsl:copy-of select="extarcteattrvalue(.)" />
</xsl:for-each>

should yield:



Attribute name=myattr1 Attribute value=myval1
Attribute name=myattr2 Attribute value=myval2
Attribute name=myattr3 Attribute value=myval3
