No, that's exactly what I wanted. A way in xslt 2.0 to take a node
that has escaped xml - as in your example
<title>hello</title> unescape itr and access it as a
document node
We can come close - we can take a string, which could be extracted from
a node, and we can turn that into an element tree, with saxon:parse() -
to use this you have to associate the prefix saxon with
"http://saxon.sf.net/" e.g.
<xsl:stylesheet .. .. ..
xmlns:saxon="http://saxon.sf.net/">
[. . .]
<xsl:variable name="theTree" select="saxon:parse($theString)" />
<xsl:value-of select="$theTree//title" />
You'll probably have to use try/catch if the unescaped string might not
be well-formed XML of course.
