You can use CDATA sections in the XML, that's fine. Or you can replace all the "<" with "<" and "&" with "&", which is all a CDATA section saves you from having to do... <code><![CDATA[ text and <tags> & stuff ]]></code> is the same as <code> text and <tags> & stuff </code> Make sure you have <xsl:output method="html"/>, and copy the parsed text through... <xsl:template match="code"> <pre> <xsl:value-of select="."/> </pre> </xsl:template> Your HTML output will have <pre> text and <tags> & stuff </pre> The fact that it's in a <pre> will cause whitespace to be preserved when it is rendered by the HTML user agent. The "<" and "&" are how the HTML serializer in the XSLT processor decided to output the "<" and "&" in the parsed data, in order to conform to HTML syntax. It will be parsed by the HTML browser just like it would in XML, so you'll get "<" in the rendering, don't worry. Fine-tune the rendering with CSS. No need to get fancy with replacing linefeeds with <br>s since <pre> does all the work for you. Mike -- Mike J.
