Is there any reason in particular why your input looks the way it does?

The content of the fragment node is actually valid XML, so why not just make
it:

<fragment>
  <p>A <acronym title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</acronym>
fragment</p>
</fragment>

to begin with. Then you won't need d-o-e after all, just use

<xsl:copy-of select="fragment/p" />

to copy it to the result tree...


HTH!

Greetz,
