i am passing a parameter to XSLT in the form of string. suppose string is this

[u]"welcome to the XML"

[u]<xsl:param name="content" />
and then i am selecting the value in this way

[u]<xsl:value-of select="$content" disable-output-escaping="yes" />
but still it is showing the result with the [u] tag. i want to print "the XML" on new line how it is possible.

disable-output-escaping doesn't work in all environments and it's best not to rely on it. The best approach to this kind of thing is to turn the input into an XML tree before you start (by putting it through an XML parser). You'll need to wrap it in a start/end tag pair to make it well-formed.

actually you know what is happening, i am first converting input string into XML tree and then passing it to DataSet and in DataSet it is taking as [u]<Name>, ok i know this forum is not related to DataSet, but the thing is that in DataSet data resides in form of XML we can access that data through XSLT, XSLT treats DataSet as XML File,
so it gives error for this. [u]<. i tried to use this

[u]<xsl:value-of select="replace('Name','<','<')" /> but then how for the [u]>. any help

What is "DataSet" in this context?

Remember that I have no idea what kind of environment you are working in. The term "DataSet" reminds me mainly of IBM mainframes.
