Re: [xsl] how to translate XML with XHTML-formatted element to FO

["Magic Finger" <magic.finger@xxxxxx>]

Hello Charles,

the required output should be something like the following, where the
escaped HTML-tags (like the one for bold (<b>) and italic (<i>)
formatting) inside the <TITLE> element of input file should be
interpreted/translated as desired.

OUTPUT:
----------
--- books.fo --->
 ...
 <fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body">
  <fo:block>
   <fo:block space-before.optimum="1pt" space-after.optimum="2pt">

</fo:inline><fo:inline font-style="italic">The True
Story</fo:inline></fo:block>
