[xsl] Outputting Doctype

Subject: [xsl] Outputting Doctype

Hello...

I want to add a doc type to my xsl so that the final html output will be
xhtml compliant.

I am passing in the doctype [ escaped ] as aparameter...

&lt;!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"; /&gt;

...and then applying a template...

<xsl:template name="doctype">
     <xsl:value-of select="$doctype"/>
</xsl:template>

But getting this result in the output:

&amp;lt;!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"; /&amp;gt;

Is there a correct way to implement a doctype for output?

Thanks!
