RE: <sub> into xsl

There is no such thing in XML as a sub tag. The &lt; and &gt; characters
in the attribute value are ordinary text characters, not markup. If you
want to treat them as markup, you will have to extract the text and pass
it to an XML parser, to turn it into a tree which XSLT can process.

Recent releases of saxon have a saxon:parse() extension function that
will do this.

Can you change the source XML design? It's a classic case of "if I were
you, I wouldn't start from here".

Subject: [xsl] <sub> into xsl


Hi,

I want to extract a sub tag from xml into xsl:
e.g. it should look like this in the xsl: O<sub>2</sub> 
Login. My data in the xml: <frameTop 
name="O&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt; Login"/>

With a <xsl:value-of select ... in the xsl I get this as an 
output in the
browser: O<sub>2</sub> Login

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks
Jonny
