If some of input <value /> elements, contain CDATA markers, then it means to me, that your application design has thought, that CDATA was necessary on <value /> elements. Some of <value /> elements in your input XML don't have CDATA markers, and this I think, is the problem of the process, which created this input. But leaving the problem aside, of incompletely specified CDATA markers in your input, you can fix this problem completely, entirely within your stylesheet. You can put cdata-section-elements="value" in your XSLT stylesheet, and this will generate CDATA markers in all the <value /> elements, in the output. And this is what your application design thought, in the first place. So this to me, is what should be done. As an additional work, and if you want, you can work to improve the process, which is producing your input XML, so that it put's CDATA markers in all the <value /> elements. -- Regards, Mukul Gandhi
