Re: disable escaping in xalan:nodeset()

Because the result returned from the xmldb:getXmlRecord(@name) is in xml
format. I need to be able to read it like a regular xml file. Do you know any
other way  I can do this?

For example, the result returned from xmldb:getXmlRecord(@name) is in this
format:
<xml>
<article>
<title> title1 </title>
</article>
</xml>

And what I want is to be able to read this string just like to read a xml
file.

Thanks.

This is actually a question related to the one I posted yesterday
regarding reading records from database in XSLT. But it's a different
problem so I decided to post as a different topic so people can search
easily.

I'm having trouble to make xalan:nodeset() work because the value
I passed to xalan:nodeset is escaped. So, all the tags (< and >) are
escaped to &lt; and &gt; and the xalan:nodeset cannot recognize them.

Here is what I did. In mystylesheet,

  <xsl:variable name='record' select=
"xalan:nodeset(xmldb:getXmlRecord(@name))/xml"/>

The xmldb:getXmlRecord(String key) is a java method used to get the key
from the xml file, access the mysql database, get the value from the key
and return the string.

xalan:nodeset() function is supposed to convert result tree fragments to
nodeset, why do you want to use it to parse string???
