Re: [xsl] Search and Replace Help

I may just leave it as is.  I'm trying to make it as simple as possible so
other people can use it pretty easily.

I've got a JavaScript that will do the conversion for [quote=] [/quote] to
the proper tags, but with that <![CDATA[]]> restriction, it won't do much
good, correct?

Is there a way to somehow ignore the <![CDATA[]]> element so that the web
browser will parse the HTML tags within there?  If so, I may be able to use
the JavaScript to get it done then, correct?
