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

2003-04-15 21:01:15
Right that has to be part of it...  But first I need to convert the
&lt;p&qt; to a <p>...
Which has to be done a variable amount of times in the same tag,
followed by all the other conversions before I output the whole tag.

That's the part that has got me...

Subject: [xsl] How can I do a string substitution for turning entities
into html tags



I am not sure if the subject line conveyed it, but I am not really sure
how to describe it at this point.

Here is an example of my xml data

<text>
   &lt;p&gt;Sometext here. Followed by more text&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p&gt;More text.&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;li&gt;For more info see &lt;/li&gt;
</text>

Because of the way the program that generates it is handling it, the
html markup tags are converted to the entities for < and >.  In my XSL I
need to change them back to the specific markup tags.

What is the best way to go about this?  

Any advice or examples would be fantastic and much appreciated

Bill
