RE: CDATA in CDATA?

2005-12-16 10:43:06

i have this construction in my xslt:

 <programlisting><![CDATA[<![[CDATA[]]><xsl:apply-templates select="."
mode="insidePre"/><![CDATA[ ]]>]]></programlisting>


This is madness. The purpose of CDATA is to indicate that the stuff inside
it is ordinary text, even though it might look like markup. You're putting
CDATA around markup but still want it treated as markup. Why on earth is
the
CDATA there?

Because i have wordml document with programlistings inside. I Transform
this wordmls into docbook. I need the second CDATA because some parser
ignore markup language. 

It's true of course that sometimes you need to do XSLT transformations to
turn bad XML into good XML. But it's much better not to create the bad XML
in the first place.

so i have to turn bad XML into good XML!
have you an idea?
