[xsl] Problem retaining HTML tags during XSL transformation

---

---

Hi All,

I am facing some problem in retaining the HTML tags during XSL
transformation.
Given below are the details.

Input XML:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<elem id="11" date="10 Jan 2007" time="16:55">
Non Title
<title>Title Here</title>
<text>
<PRE> (Start of pre tag)
<p>
Within P
</p>
After P tag
(End of pre tag) </PRE></text>
</elem>

XSL Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

<xsl:output method="html" indent="no"/>

   <xsl:template match="*">
		<xsl:copy>
		<xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
		<xsl:apply-templates/>
		</xsl:copy>
	</xsl:template>

  	<xsl:template match="elem">
		<xsl:text>Elem Id, News Details&#10;</xsl:text>
		<xsl:value-of select="@id"/>
		<xsl:text>,"</xsl:text>
		<xsl:call-template name="transformXMLString">
		    <xsl:with-param name="StringToTransform" select="$doubleQtReplaced"/>
		</xsl:call-template>
		<xsl:text>"</xsl:text>
	</xsl:template>

	<xsl:variable name="doubleQtReplaced">
        <xsl:call-template name="replaceDblQt">
            <xsl:with-param name="StringToTransform" select="/"/>
        </xsl:call-template>
    </xsl:variable>

	<xsl:template match="error">
		<xsl:text>SYSERROR_TYPE,SYSERROR_CODE,SYSERROR_DESC&#10;X,730,"</xsl:text>
		    <xsl:value-of select="error_text"/>
		<xsl:text>"</xsl:text>
	</xsl:template>

	<xsl:template  name="transformXMLString">
	    <xsl:param name="StringToTransform" select="."/>
	    <xsl:choose>
            <xsl:when test="contains($StringToTransform,'&#10;')">
                <xsl:value-of
select="substring-before($StringToTransform,'&#10;')"
/><br/><xsl:call-template name="transformXMLString">
                        <xsl:with-param name="StringToTransform">
                            <xsl:value-of
select="substring-after($StringToTransform,'&#10;')" />
                        </xsl:with-param>
                    </xsl:call-template>
            </xsl:when>
	        <xsl:otherwise>
	            <xsl:value-of select="$StringToTransform"/>
	        </xsl:otherwise>
	    </xsl:choose>
	</xsl:template>

	<xsl:template name="replaceDblQt">
	    <xsl:param name="StringToTransform" select ="."/>
	    <xsl:choose>
	        <xsl:when test="contains($StringToTransform,'&#x22;')">
                <xsl:value-of
select="substring-before($StringToTransform,'&#x22;')"/>""<xsl:call-template
name="replaceDblQt">
                        <xsl:with-param name="StringToTransform">
                            <xsl:value-of
select="substring-after($StringToTransform,'&#x22;')"/>
                        </xsl:with-param>
                    </xsl:call-template>
            </xsl:when>
            <xsl:otherwise>
	            <xsl:value-of select="$StringToTransform"/>
	        </xsl:otherwise>
	    </xsl:choose>
	</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Current Output:

Elem Id, News Details

11,"<br>Non Title<br>Title Here<br><br> (Start of pre tag) <br><br>Within
P<br><br>After P tag<br>(End of pre tag) <br>"

Desired output:

Elem Id, News Details

11,"<br>Non Title<br><title>Title Here</title><br><br> <PRE>(Start of pre tag)
<br><p>Within P</p><br>After P tag<br>(End of pre tag) </PRE> <br>"

Any clues?

Thanks and Regards,
