Generates text in the output.
<xsl:textdisable-output-escaping = "yes" | "no"></xsl:text>
Attributes
disable-output-escaping
Default is "no". If the value is "yes", a text node generated by instantiating the <xsl:text> element will be output without any escaping. For example, the following generates the single character"<".<xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes"><</xsl:text>Note disable-output-escaping="yes" can be used to generate non-well-formed documents, and thus should be used with caution, because non-well-formed output may generate errors in certain circumstances. For example, transformNodeToObject to an XML document requires that the result be well-formed and thus may not complete if disable-output-escaping has affected the well-formed appearance of the document. Consider disable-output-escaping="yes" an advanced feature to be used only when the potential dangers are understood.
