RE: [xsl] XALAN

["Michael Kay" <mhk@xxxxxxxxx>]

Is your output text, or XML?

If it is text, then use <xsl:output method="text">

If it is XML, then you are trying to output tags, which is messy, because
XSLT doesn't output tags, it outputs nodes to a result tree. But for people
who want to play dirty, disable-output-escaping is there to enable it.
