You mention that you need to have entities inside the variable. However,
without seeing more of your XML and XSL and knowing more about what you
want to produce, I don't see the need for the entities inside the
variable. The variable could contain just the href value, in which case
you could do this:
<dd><a href="{$variable1}">Link text (from another variable,
perhaps)</a></dd>
If you show us more about why you need to have the entities in the
variable, perhaps we can offer more help.

Subject
[xsl] Variables and HTML
Folks:
I am sure this been debated before to the ground. I have
a variable that have entities as part of its contents as in the
following
variable1 = "< A href = ....."
I am trying to output this as html
<dd><xsl:value-of select = "$variable1"/></dd>
The problem is that when I get the HTML, I still have the entities
inside the variables causing the HTML browser to display the wrong thing
My final HML looks something like this:
<DD>A <a href="Ballot"><i>Ballot</i></a> prepared
or <a href="cast"><{i>cast</i></a> by a voter
other
than at a regular polling place.</DD>
I will like to have all those entities resolved. I need to use the
entities inside the
variable because I am doing a lot of manipulations with it.
Thanks,
Carmelo
