I see, you want to have the xml tag even if the column value is null, is it? Try this workaround. My previous posts were to generate empty tags using these functions.
select replace( xmlelement(“employee”,
xmlelement(“No”, nvl( to_char(empno), ‘*’) ),
xmlelement(“Name”, nvl( ename, ‘*’) )) , ‘*’, null) empdata
from emp
