Re: [xsl] Entity inside an attribute

The "<" character is not allowed to occur unescaped in an attribute
value. That's just a hard-and-fast rule of XML. (See
http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml/ production #10.)

The "<" character is escaped by using "&lt;", &#x3C;, or &#60;. 

Hello All,

I am trying to create an HTML <td> tag with attribute 
title="=COUNTIF(A3:A13<>P)"

But I am not able to get the greater than sign '>'.
My output is coming as 
<td title="=COUNTIF(A3:A13<&gt;P)"></td>
and I want
<td title="=COUNTIF(A3:A13<>P)"></td>

Following code I am using to create the td tag.

<xsl:element name="td">
    <xsl:attribute name="title">
         <xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes">=COUNTIF(A3:A13</xsl:text>
          <xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes">&lt;</xsl:text>
          <xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes">&gt;P)</xsl:text>
     </xsl:attribute>
</xsl:element>

I tried this one too in my XSL

<td title='=COUNTIF(A3:A13&lt;&gt;P)' />
        

Please correct me where I am doing wrong.
