We are not going to work on this without an appropriate testcase, see http://www.mozilla.org/projects/xslt/bug-reporting.html

Chances are this is the "IE actually serializes and reparses the output instead of converting directly between DOMs" issue. And if its serializer is buggy, it won't escape things right and you'll end up parsing the "<ul>" string which that template is inserting as literal CDATA....
(Ayalew) I get comments that this may have worked in IE and not in Mozilla. But I have tested it with not only in IE, but also jdk 1.4 and Apache XSL processors and the out put is a good HTML file. The mozilla parser however fails to generate the HTML when CDATA is used to add HTML tags.
