Question

My problem is that my XML document contains snippets of XHTML within it and while passing it through an XSLT I would like it to render those snippets without mangling them.

I’ve tried wrapping the snippet in a CDATA but it doesn’t work since less than and greater than are translated to < and > as opposed to being echoed directly.

What’s the XSL required for doing this?

Answer 1

<xsl:template match='@*|node()'>   <xsl:copy>     <xsl:apply-templates select='@*|node()'/>   </xsl:copy> </xsl:template> 

This is referred to as the ‘identity transformation’ in the XSLT specification.
