preserving XHTML from XML source

<HTML>
<BODY>
We want to embed some XHTML in an XML source that will be transformed to
XHTML. In particular we want to display messages that have some text bolded.

The XML looks like this
<Messages>
        <Message>Some text <b>with bolding</b> to display.</Message>
        <Message>Another message</Message>
</Messages>

When using Xalan-J under XML Spy, the bolding can be preserved using the
following template:


        <!-- To display summary messages -->
        <xsl:template match="Message">
                <tr>
                        <td>
                                <xsl:copy-of select="text()|*"/>
                        </td>
                </tr>
        </xsl:template>


However, when running under Websphere 5.0, which also uses Xalan-J, the
portion of text inside the <b> </b> tags is not copied to the output, nor
are the tags. The result is:

        <tr>
                <td>Some text to display.</td>
        </tr>

instead of:

        <tr>
                <td>Some text <b>with bolding</b> to display.</td>
        </tr>

Is there a better way to do this?
