[XSL-LIST Mailing List Archive Home] [By Thread] [By Date] [Recent Entries] [Reply To This Message] Re: CDATA question
 I have the following XML structure, and the extract from the XSLT script which is not producing the desired output. What would be the best way to get desired output? By building result text out of the input elements, not by building result nodes out of the input elements. <xsl:....cdata-section-elements="mattext feedback"> This is a request only to put out text nodes in CDATA sections, it is not a request to emit the node tree syntax inside of a CDATA section as you expected. To get what you want you need to build your own text syntax from the input node structures and emit that as text, not as nodes. A simple working example is below ... I hope this helps. ................. Ken T:\ftemp>type uslu.xml
