I have not been in touch with XSLT for a couple of years now and 
this simple transformation I can not describe in XSLT:

<params>

  <param name="somename">value</param>

</params>



should be transformed to:



<INPUT>
  <SOMENAME>value</SOMENAME>
</INPUT

So basically the parameter "name" should be transformed to a tag in 
the final XML.



Can anyone give me a starting point how to do that?

You don't say if you are using XSLT 1.0 or 2.0 ... to use 1.0 use the 
transform() function and values for upper-case and lower-case letters.



I hope this helps.
