The problem is that html fields edited by the doctors don't have a predefined structure. The doctor could write anything with whatever format applied to the text (html format). I have to be able to rebuild the original html file to show in a web interface. Due to this, the layout info for each html field (in principle one per report) is different. Is this possible with XSLT?
Even, it could be desirable the ability to export those html fields to another formats like pdf.
