SV: xsp:expr inside xsl:variable

[Carola Westerlund <ca...@opk.org>]

could it be possible to use the <xsl:eval> tag and set the no entities flag to yes
in the problem mentioned instead of <xsp:expr> like:

<xsl:eval no-entities="yes">request.getParameter("user")</xsl:eval> 
The no entities flag keeps the XSL processor from escaping certain
characters like "> < &" using their corresponding character entity like
"&gt; &lt; &amp".Which it will automatically do in an eval statement unless you specifically
say "no entities".

It keeps things like "Inte Lite it" or "<-- cool name by the way" from
being improper XML when it gets exported out.

or am I out bicycling? ; )
