Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 98168

(Core :: XSLT, defect)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040206 Firefox/0.8
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040206 Firefox/0.8

The disable-output-encoding attribute of xsl:value-of appears to be ignored when
using <![CDATA[ sections.  That is, the same result happens no matter what that
value of disable-output-encoding is.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a simple XML file that contains a <![CDATA[ section.
2. Create a simple XSLT stylesheet that applies the value of the CDATA section
in a <xsl:value-of> tag with the attribute disable-output-escaping="yes".
3. Link the stylesheet to the XML file.
4. View it.
Actual Results:  
The text in the CDATA section was escaped (i.e., <, > and & were changed to
entities).

Expected Results:  
The text in the CDATA should not have been escaped when disable-output-escaping
was set to "yes".
