I'm betting this poor soul has had to work with xml (RSS) produced from Radio Userland or another 'major' blogging tool. Excuse the sarcasm but I also have had to do so, if this is the case the escaped markup in that case is escaped html and is not required to be well-formed, most tools seem to just pass it through unquestioned, can't be done from an xsl-t standpoint, I used tidy to turn the malformed escaped html to XHTML via an extension function. >Saxon you can do this using the saxon:parse() extension function. Maybe there should be an exsl:parse-string(), as was discussed here: http://lists.fourthought.com/pipermail/exslt/2001-April/000080.html (hasn't been implemented, has it?), I say this because there is quite a lot of tools out there from the blogging domain that use this crazy strategy of handling markup.
