The elements have the strange definition shown below: <![CDATA[ .....snip..... ]]> That isn't an element, it's a CDATA section and is invisible to an XSLT processor. You just extract the data from the surrounding element in the usual way. CDATA is just an authoring convenience, within the marked region < acts like < and & acts like & so if you have a large chunk of XML that you want to quote as data rather than as part of the XML tree, you can do <x><![[CDATA[<p>zzz <span>dddd ...</span></p>]]></x> but XSLT will see the same input as if you had gone <x><p>zzz <span>dddd &nbsp; ...</span></p></x> David ________________________________________________________________________ This e-mail has been scanned for all viruses by Star.
