This is a FAQ, if you have control over your source format the usual
advice is not to use CDATA, that just tells the system that the stuff
that looks like html markup isn't markup at all but just Character DATA.
Your CDATA section has stopped the original XML parser parsing that
section to form a tree of nodes, in order to manipulate it you need to
parse the string you have to produce a node set, this isn't possible in
standard xslt without writing it out and running another transform on
the result, as you said, although some systems do have extension
functions that will parse strings (saxon has one, and msxml can do this
by escaping to script and calling its dom parser)
If however you can just modify your input form to look like
<SummaryHTML>
<html>
<html>
<body>
.....
.....
</body>
</html>
</SummaryHTML>
then your task would be a lot easier.
