[xsl] how to include nodes inside CData tags

[Terry Ofner <tdofner@xxxxxxxxx>]

I need to generate the following format:

<question>
<![CDATA[The city council passed the new <strong>regulation</strong>.]]>
</question>

from this input:

<question>The city council passed the new
<strong>regulation</strong>.></question>

when I add cdata-section-elements="question" to my xsl:output statement, I get
this results:

<question><![CDATA[6. The city council passed the new
]]><strong>regulation</strong><![CDATA[.]]></question>


Is there a way to include the <strong> element in the CDATA?

I have tried to convert the <strong> tag to text:

<xsl:text
disable-output-escaping="yes">&amp;#x003C;strong&amp;#x003E;</xsl:text>
        <xsl:apply-templates/>
<xsl:text
disable-output-escaping="yes">&amp;#x003C;/strong&amp;#x003E;</xsl:text>

but to no avail.

I am using xslt 2.0

Any help would be appreciated.
