I would suggest parsing the HTML using John Cowan's TagSoup parser. This
looks to the XSLT processor just like an XML parser, so you can probably
integrate it directly - depending on the XSLT processor that you are using.

Subject: [xsl] resolve html entities
Hi,
I know this is a common question but I could not find a
specific answer
to this:
I am exporting texts from a database that contains html markup. Now I
need to transform
the html to something usable in a DTP application.
The tags are not the problem because I am only allowing a
subset of html
but the html entities
(german umlauts, special characters) would need to be transformed to
plain Unicode (UTF-8)
characters.
What is the best way to achieve this?
Thanks,
Max Gaerber
