XML and the BL Compiler

[Brian Bain <xaraya (at) tefen.net>]

Hi,
I'm probably pushing the bounds of what I should be attempting here, but 
I've run into this issue.  I want to return XML for an element on screen 
by enclosing the XML in a tag with that element's name.  I'm pulling the 
element's name in my php function and passing it to the template as a 
variable.  The problem is that the BL compiler doesn't like this whole 
concept.  I've got a work around in mind, but I was wondering if any 
thought has been given to this type of issue, or if there's a proper way 
for handling something like this.

My template looks something like this:

<#$element#>
    <item id="#$id#" name="#$name#" />
</#$element#>

Essentially the $element is the ID of one of any number of on screen 
select boxes and the item is an option to be added to the select box.  
The whole thing works if I replace #$element# with a hardcoded text string.

Is there a more appropriate way to handle this?  Has there been any 
thought with respect to this type of issue going forward?
Brian
