There are no "tags" inside a CDATA section -- it is a regular text node and
its value is a string. If a string happens to contains the text
representation of an xml document, this does not help -- it would be
necessary to call an extension function that will parse this string and
return the node-set comprising of its top element.
All the data inside the CDATA section here is actually an XML document
Then do put it as-is within the xml document -- not within a CDATA section.
In this case you'd be able to extract it with a single xsl:copy-of
instruction.

I have a problem regarding a CDATA section in an XML file. I want to
convert this XML file into HTML to be displayed on a portal.My document
looks something like this
----------------------------
XML FILE
-----------------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<gridDataServiceResponse xmlns="">
<response name="requestsynch">
<result name="Engine">GDS Engine - request
"requestsynch" was stored successfully</result>
</response>
<response name="executerequestsynch">
<result name="statement">COMPLETE</result>
<result name="d1">
<data><![CDATA[<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE RowSet PUBLIC '-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD RowSet//EN'
'http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/RowSet.dtd'>
<RowSet>

<col>2048</col>
<col>407522</col>
</row>
</data>
</RowSet>]]></data>
</result>
</response>
</gridDataServiceResponse>
All the data inside the CDATA section here is actually an XML document
that I want to parse and convert to a html file. But I dont know how to
detect the tags inside a CDATA section and parse them. Does anyone know
how this could be done ?
Although it doesnt work my xslt stylesheet looks something like this

I am trying to convert the XML file into a table in HTML. I basically need
to know how to detect the tags inside a CDATA section.
