HTML in CDDATA wont parse

Sep 28th, 2006

Hello there,

We are using XSL transformations using XML for one of our sites. Anyway the idea is to show everything styled just like a regular html.

I have a problem though.

I have a node that looks like this. When I display it it will show on browser as unparsed HTML. Does someone know how to make sure that this content is parsed?

Funny Node:
----------------
<summary>
- <![CDATA[ Travel Dates: Now - December 23, 2006 All-Inclusive! ~ Adults Only! Luxurious Superior Room...indulge body, mind & spirit! Now Includes "Free Your Mind" Travel Protection Program! Other Available Dates... For Travel January 4 - April 14, '07 <a href=http://www.cheapcaribbean.com/specialAvailability.jsp?pacID=198>CLICK HERE</a>
]]>
</summary>

Using XSL I'm displaying it like this:
------------------------------------------

<div>
<xsl:value-of select="summary" />
</div>

I did lots of researching and Im getting nowhere. Hopefully some of you have done this before.

Thank You,
tim
