Ah, the dreaded attributes-vs-elements issue. This works:

For this document:

<doc>
  <sometag>blah</sometag>
  <someothertag>blah blah</someothertag>
</doc>

applying this stylesheet:

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0">

  <xsl:template match="doc">
    <xsl:element name="result">
      <xsl:apply-templates/>
    </xsl:element>
  </xsl:template>

  <xsl:template match="doc/*">
    <xsl:element name="attribute">
      <xsl:attribute name="name">
        <xsl:value-of select="name()"/>
      </xsl:attribute>
      <xsl:element name="value">
        <xsl:value-of select="./text()"/>
      </xsl:element>
    </xsl:element>
  </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

produces this result:

<result>
  <attribute name="sometag"><value>blah</value></attribute>
  <attribute name="someothertag"><value>blah blah</value></attribute>
</result>

HTH...
