using XSP : element ???

["Kazi the P i R @ t {-" <ka...@ewarna.com>]

i am trying to use the <xsp:attribute> thing to put attributes into a
statically marked element. but ever since i put those in... i am getting an
error messge from the browser when i try to call the page... Has anyone ever
used these xsp elements b4?? maybe you can give me some pointers on its
use...

My code:
                <product>
               <xsp:attribute name="id">
                 <xsp:expr>temp_bullet</xsp:expr>
/*temp_bullet is a java variable of course*/
               </xsp:attribute>


My Error:

org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: The content of elements must consist of
well-formed character
                data or markup.
