RE: [xsl] special characters in XSL

["Michael Kay" <mike@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If you are using output method=html, and the Javascript is inside a <script>
element, then the < should not be escaped. Either (a) it's not in a script
element, or (b) your XSLT processor is getting it wrong (which is not
uncommon).
