How to stop XSLT from escaping XML in output

Tuesday, September 28th, 2010

I was asked by a colleague today how to prevent XSLT from escaping XML “special characters” in its output. i.e. < was being escaped to &lt ;. I didn't know but somebody else did... 

<xsl:value-of select=”somethingWhichContainsXml” />

should be 

<xsl:value-of select=”somethingWhichContainsXml” disable-output-escaping=”yes” />
