It doesn't work in the sense that the <p> tag is displayed in the browser, at least when I use MSXML4. I do think I have the option of using Saxon though. The <Html> tag is not the top-level tag, so I'm not sure I can add those other attributes.

But you can have it in either. Your example is not guaranteed to work on every processor, because not all processors support disable-output-escaping (and some support it only if you invoke the processor in certain ways). But if I take your fragment and turn it into a complete stylesheet by writing: <Html xsl:version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes"> <![CDATA[ <p>This is the Summary section. ]]> </xsl:text> </Html> and then run it (against any source document) from the command line using Saxon, the result is: <Html> <p>This is the Summary section. </Html> (I do wish people wouldn't say simply "it didn't work". What actually happened? Different results? Error message? If you say what happened, people on this list can explain *why* it didn't work.)
