RE: '<' and '>' in the value of a variable

How about:
<xsl:template match="SomeXPathExpression">
 <b><xsl:value-of select="." /></b>
</xsl:template>

Subject:  [xsl] '<' and '>' in the value of a variable

Hi,

I'm thinking about putting one of my html tag (bold) in the variable like this:

<xsl:variable name="bold" select="'<b>'"/>
<xsl:variable name="endbold" select="'</b>'"/>

And then, in the output, I use the values like this:
<xsl:value-of select="$bold"/><xsl:value-of select="'Article: 
'"/><xsl:value-of select="$endbold"/>
But the problem is that, when it prints out on the browser, it prints out 
<b> and </b> instead of making the "Article:" string bold.
And I cannot put '<' and '>' directly in my variables.

Do you have any suggestion how I might be able to do this?

Thanks in advance.

Ming
