That works great if your HTML is actually XHTML!  When you 'store' it as 
HTML in the XML document the XML parser is going to see it as more XML 
and expect it to be well formed.  If the HTML is XHTML compliant then it 
will be well formed.  But if the HTML is old and|or sloppy, as it often 
is, then the XML parser is going to choke when it comes across an 
unclosed <p> tag or a mismatched <strong><p> </strong></p> or anything 
of the like.

Just trying to save you another head bump.

I know I did something like this in the past, I am am racking my memory 
on how I got the 'safe' HTML out of XML data and display it in the 
browser.  Unfortunately I no longer have access to that code, previous 
job and all that.  I think it was something with a <cfsavecontent...> 
and|or XSLT, but I am unsure.  I'll think about it over lunch and see if 
I can remember.
