SLAX Example
The following sample code uses the value of the name node (rather than the literal string "name") to
create an XML element, whose contents are an empty element with a
name of "from‑" concatenated with the value
of the address node. Node values are selected from the current context.
for-each (list/item) {
element name {
element "from-" _ address;
}
