Do you get the message:

"Can only cut/copy text() nodes and attribute values to properties" ?

You can only do this since you can't store an XML structure in a property.
I suspect you just want the name attribute value, in which case you can
copy and provide attrValue="true" to grab the attribute value.

Does that sound correct ?
