Sigh. The CDATA section doesn't contain html tags. The purpose of CDATA is to say "this stuff might look like markup, but it isn't to be treated as such". If you want it treated as markup, don't put it in CDATA. What you have to do is to extract the text from the CDATA section and parse it as XML. Saxon has an extension function saxon:parse() to achieve that (because lots of people do this, hence the sigh). Michael Kay http://www.saxonica.com/
