This is a XSL translation bug.  Given the XSL statement below,
<xsl:value-of disable-output-escaping="yes" select="description" />
              ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The highlighted part of this XSL statement has no effect in FireFox, nor can I
find a work-around.  MSIE 6.0 Win/XP SP2 seems to handle if just fine.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Try the supplied URL with both browsers.
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
The html formatting characters are displayed, not acted upon.


Without fixing this bug, I can see no way to have formatted HTML pass through
the XML.
