Re: [xsl] Is there any xslt 2.0 processor that implements sticky d-o-e

[bryan rasmussen <rasmussen.bryan@xxxxxxxxx>]

I agree that the designers of namespaces may have thought they were
addressing this requirement but it seems like many of the tools and
applications that allow one to embed your own xml format in another
one don't agree(or maybe are too busy to handle it), specifically in
this case I have some escaped xml embedded inside of an xml response
from a solr query(I need to access the escaped xml as a document node
and extract such things as the title). It's looking too difficult in
XSLT 2.0 I guess (unless I pay for something which this is too
unimportant to do), we just want to generate a bunch of example xml
documents quickly for submission to a vendor's data mining
application, so I guess I'll be switching over to ruby for the task,
which will then allow most of the people in the office to use the code
anyway.

Thanks,
Bryan Rasmussen
