how to transform escaped xml contents in xmlnode

[Invalidlastname]

Hi,
I have an XML document, created from ADO DataSet, which contains XML data in
some nodes shown below:
<NewDataSet>
<Table>
<field_name>My Selection</field_name>
<field_type>dropdown</field_type>
<field_choice_text>
&lt;Choices&gt;&lt;Choice choice_text=\"xxx\" /&gt;&lt;Choice
choice_text=\"yyy\" /&gt;&lt;Choice choice_text=\"zzz\"
/&gt;&lt;/Choices&gt;
</field_choice_text>
<field_answer>
xxx
</field_answer>
</Table>
</NewDataSet>

How can I get the value from field_choice_text node as "unescaped" xml
contents as:
<Choices>
<Choice choice_text="xxx"/>
<Choice field_choice_text="yyy"/>
<Choice field_choice_text="zzz"/>
</Choices>

and pass this contents to xsl template so I can apply the xslt to render
this as a dropdown list box
....
<option ...>xxx</option>
<option
Thanks

I read the msxsl:node-set function can be used in .NET
from the sdk document
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?
url=/library/en-us/cpguide/html/cpconsupportformsxslnode-
setfunction.asp

This might be the answer i am looking for =) I will give
it a try.

You may consider DOM as well. For example, we can select a "choice" node
and modify its attribute's innertext, to change field_choice_text node as
"unescaped". And then perform the XSLT Transform.

Not really. Maximul msxsl:node-set function can do for you is to convert
escaped fragment as string into a single text node.
You have to parse escaped fragment as XML if you want to process it in
XSLT. As Luke pointed out DOM allows that easily via InnerXml property.

Thank both of you for the helps. I replaced the InnerXML with InnerText of
that node in DOM and worked very well =)
