Adding HTML Data Into XSL File

Hello,

I have a problem that I need some advice on. I am doing a Xalan transformation, using a xml document and a xsl document. The result is sent to the browser has works great. But I have been given a new assignemnt, in which I am having trouble with.

I have been directed to add a <img src="/somepathtoanimage"> to the xsl. But the path needs to be dynamic (coming from a servlet parameter). So I created a <xsl:param name="image" select="'/defaultpath'" />
And when I do the transform, I try and put in a valid generated path, but it does not work. When I source the page,  the browser shows the following:

</table>&lt;img src="/somepaththat/isvalid/a.gif"&gt;</form>

So it prints the above to the screen and not <img src="/somepaththat/isvalid/a.gif"> which would show the a.gif.

Any ideas how to get around this?

Is this the way people add dynamic HTML do their transformation, or is there a better way, using some other tool.?
