RE: [xsl] Embedding an SSI echo in an XML attribute

There's never a clean way to generate invalid XML. In XSLT 2.0 you can
achieve this using character maps: map a couple of private-use-area
characters to the strings "<!--" and "-->". This should at least mean that
you can generate a proper element and attribute node. But you're still
dependent on the transformation phase being immediately followed by
serialization.

Subject: [xsl] Embedding an SSI echo in an XML attribute

I need to generate an apache .sssi file that contains the 
following kind of
code:

<a href="<!--#echo var="grar.5.url" encoding="none" -->">link</a>

To acheive this in XSLT 1 we generated the code as CDATA in a 
plain text
file:

<xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes">&lt;a 
href="</xsl:text> <xsl:comment>#echo var='grar.5.url' 
encoding='none'</xsl:comment> <xsl:text 
disable-output-escaping="yes">"&gt;link&lt;/a&gt;</xsl:text>

Can anyone advise on a cleaner way to do this using XSLT 2?
