<a> tag under <xsl:variable> not working

Question

Hi all, I have declared one variable in xslt, assigned some value to it but while retrieving the value I am facing some problem.

                 <xslt:variable name="Msg">
                 Hello for more info <a href="http://someurl/"&gt;click me.</a>
                </xslt:variable>

while retrieving the value the content is coming as plain text means Click me is not coming as link.should I change my approach for that link or Something is wrong from my end. Thanks.

Answer 1

EDIT:

Are you using <xsl:copy-of select="$Msg"/> when outputting the value? Otherwise the tags will not be output properly, also check the output method is set to HTML:

<xslt:output method="html" version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" indent="yes"/>

Answer 2

From the sound of it, you're currently using <xsl:value-of select="$Msg"/> to obtain the variable's contents. Instead, try using <xsl:copy-of select="$Msg"/>.
