I'm using libsoup, libxml2 and libxslt. Libsoup grabs the file and I do: xsltStylesheetPtr cur = NULL; xmlDocPtr res, rss; rss = xmlParseMemory(msg->response.body, msg->response.length); >From there, params[nbparams] = NULL; xmlSubstituteEntitiesDefault(1); xmlLoadExtDtdDefaultValue = 1; cur = xsltParseStylesheetFile((const xmlChar *)"rss2html.xml"); res = xsltApplyStylesheet(cur, rss, params); After the rss = xmlParseMemory(msg->response.body, msg->response.length); The xml tree appears the same as the source file. The problem occurs in the following situation: <description><![CDATA["One says definitely, the other says maybe. At this point, the Nets will take whatever they can get. . ." ]]></description> After a the stylesheet is applied, the " are turned into &quot;. Some of the CDATA has " which come out ok in the eventual html. All the template do is grab the <title>,<link> and <description> then throw the values into an html <table>. > So, where's the problem? Does that make it more clear?
