Hello Java XML, I experienced a similar problem in the past and perhaps this hack will get you started. I allow clients to submit entries using a rich editor such as the Microsoft DHTML Edit Control or IE55 DIV.ContentEditable. My application receives the data and stores it in a SQL Server 2000 database. Getting the user HTML is easy. Re-displaying the HTML is a bit tricker... My XML SQL Server query returns the user-entered HTML in a CDATA wrapper. This ensures proper compliance with XSLT but makes the HTML tags appear as plain-text to the web browser. I resolved the problem by writing a small, client-side JavaScript function that takes the "escaped" HTML and converted it to valid HTML using the client-side DHTML DOM. Specifically, I assign the escaped data to the innerHTML property of some HTML element, such as a DIV or SPAN. It renders properly on IE55. I have not tested Netscape. I'm not an expert at XSL, XSLT, etc., and I'm sure there's probably a better way of doing this. Maybe this will give you some ideas. Email if you want specific examples. -----Original Message----- From: Java XML [mailto:jaxlive@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: March 29, 2001 08:46 To: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [xsl] xml to html paragraphing Hi Peter, But i have the para tags in within the text of the element so there is not need to worry about inserting the tags but now my problem is when i generate an html the tags are show as <p> thats the problem now is there a way so that i can output the tags as it is and these tags are in the cdata section of the element is ther a way to disable the escaping...
