Re: parse inside a cdtata

This is a FAQ,

> Id like to know if it's possible to parse a cdata content in XSL.

If your "html" is in fact well formed xml some some XSL systems (eg
saxon) have  extension elements to allow you to parse a string as xml.

A better solution is to not have the CDATA marked section.
CDATA means, in particular, that it is not _P_CDATA ie it should not be
_Parsed_ for markup, it is strange (but strangely common) to explictly
signal that some string should not be parsed, and then to require it to
be parsed.

If your xsl system hasn't got an extension element then you could see if
it supports the data URI type
document(concat('data:text/xml,',CONTENT))
would work in that case.
Failing that it would be possible but difficult to try to parse the
string by hand just using xslt substring-before and substring-after
