My problem is that I have an attribute that looks like this:
<sentence text="this is <b>bold</b> text"/>
If I do the following:
<xsl:template match="sentence">
<i>
<xsl:value-of select="@text"/>
</i>
</xsl:template>
Then the result obviously is:
<i>this is <b>bold</b> text</i>
However, I really want the pseudotags within the attribute to become
real tags:
<i>this is <b>bold</b> text</i>
How do I do this?
If the processor you are using supports the optional attribute
disable-output-escaping, then you can do the following:
<i>
<xsl:value-of select="@text" disable-output-escaping="yes"/>
</i>
Your situation is the most popular use-case for this optional
attribute: when you have escaped markup as text and you need it to go
out as bona fide markup.
I hope this helps.
