[xsl] Create CDATA Section in XML Output

[Mark Miller <storefront2000@xxxxxxxxx>]

Greetings,

I need to output a CDATA tag in the XML output.
I've tried using cdata-section-elements="grammar"
as an output attribute, but just get a jumbled
mess of CDATA tags.

Example:
<grammar><![CDATA[
[]]><![CDATA[
(]]><![CDATA[mccoy]]><![CDATA[) 
]]><![CDATA[
(]]><![CDATA[doc]]><![CDATA[) 
]]><![CDATA[
(]]><![CDATA[bones]]><![CDATA[) 
]]><![CDATA[] {]]><![CDATA[<]]><![CDATA[question1]]>
<![CDATA[ ]]><![CDATA[mccoy]]><![CDATA[>]]><![CDATA[}
]]></grammar>

It looks as if every single token is being placed in
a seperate CDATA section, instead of one CDATA
surrounding the contents of the tag.

If I don't use cdata-section-elements="grammar" in the
output element, I get the correct output for the
grammar tag, but the VoiceXML interpreter won't accept
it without the CDATA surrounding. I've tried replacing
the opening and closing (lt/gt) symbols with entities,
but that didn't work either.

I'm using Xerces/Xalan. Any solutions would be greatly

appreciated. 

Thanks,
Mark
