Re: Html tags as part of XML elements rendered as text

xsl parse html tags
If you're dying to keep your input xml data in this form, you might try
adding the disable-output-escaping="yes" attribute to the <xsl:value-of
select="text"/> element.  Although implementation is optional, it will
probably work.

The more preferred solution would be to see if you can change your input
XML document to something more XML-like:

<text><font face="helvetica" size="2"><b>this thing
costs</b><br>$219.00</br></font></text>

Then, you could change the <xsl:value-of select="text"> to

	<xsl:copy-of select="text/*">
