[xsl] generating entities in XSL, < becomes &lt;

["Christer Nordvik" <christer.nordvik@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi.

I am having problems with an XSL stylesheet. I keep getting < instead
of "<" signs. My problem is with the XSL when it is generating entities.
Is there any other way of generating entities in a XSL besides the one I
have used? My method works if I stream the result directly to the
client(Internet Explorer SVG plugin) but not when I save the result in a
DocumentFragment and want to process it further. Any examples of
generating entities would be most helpful!
