Re: How can I do a string substitution for turning entities into html tags

Right that has to be part of it...  But first I need to convert the
&lt;p&qt; to a <p>...

Did you try the suggested code?
If you are in a situation that disable-output-escaping works at all that
is _all_ you need to do.
You don't need to convert  &lt;p&qt; to a <p> as that already is the XML
represendation of those three characters, so all you have to do is
output the characters directly not in XML syntax, which is what
disable-output-escaping does.

Normally of course  XSLT is not creating the string "<p>" but an element
with name p. In that case what you need is to convert the string "<p>" to
such an element, which as Mike has already replied you need an XML
parser.
