306965 - Passed HTML in XSL parameters not rendered

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 98168

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Wouter Klouwen]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; NetBSD i386; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050727 Firefox/1.0.6
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; NetBSD i386; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050727 Firefox/1.0.6

When passing HTML in XSL template parameters, the HTML is not rendered properly,
despite being escaped (does not even come into the DOM tree according to the DOM
inspector). Other XSL parsers interpret it as HTML correctly.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
<xsl:template name="line">
        <xsl:param name="test"/>
        <xsl:value-of disable-output-escaping="yes" select="$test"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:call-template name="line">
<xsl:with-param name="test">example html<![CDATA[<sup>with some
superscript</sup>]]></xsl:with-param>
</xsl:call-template>

Actual Results:  
The sup element in this case, it passed on, unescaped, as should happen, but at
rendering stage interpreted as just text.

Expected Results:  
The HTML elements in the CDATA section should be rendered as proper DOM
elements, as Internet Explorer and Sablotron XSLT Processor do, for example.
