Its been a while since I've played with xml/xslt but you can disable
the output escaping that occurs. Have a look at:

http://www.w3schools.com/xsl/el_value-of.asp

I have a nasty feeling that this actually covers the reverse scenario
(ie you have < and > in your xml and you want it to be put in as is
and not be escaped so it becomes html tags), but I don't have any of
the code that I've done similar things with in the past.

The key is to find out where the conversion is being done - is it in
the sql2xml library, or is it the xml/xsl parser doing it. If it is
the later the example above should work.

PS if you haven't looked at w3schools.com before I find it a really
useful resource for xml/xsl stuff in general.
