You will probably have to encode it into your XML, so it looks like this:

<tableInfo> 
    <id>1</id> 
    <htmlInfo>
        &lt;html xmlns='w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt;&lt;head &gt;&lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt;&lt;p&gt;xzxzxzxzxz&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;hghghgh&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/body&gt;&lt;/html&gt;
    </htmlInfo>
<tableInfo>

So all < characters have been replaced with < and all > characters have been replaced with >. An & should be & ... If you're using .NET, don't use String.Replace, but use the System.Xml namespace to correctly build an XmlDocument. It will do the encoding for you. For example, in VB.Net:

Dim stringBuilder As New StringBuilder() 
Dim stringWriter As New StringWriter(stringBuilder) 
Dim xmlTextWriter As New XmlTextWriter(stringWriter) 

xmlTextWriter.WriteStartElement("item") 
xmlTextWriter.WriteAttributeString("id", id.ToString()) 
xmlTextWriter.WriteAttributeString("key", key) 
xmlTextWriter.WriteValue(value) 
xmlTextWriter.WriteEndElement() 

Return stringBuilder.ToString()

Then, your XSL should be able to handle it, and if you output the transform to a HTML file for example, the '<' and other stuff should correctly be '<' in the output, and your HTML should be valid.
