I love to respond to my own posts, so here goes an update.
I have just recently discovered the disable-output-escaping attribute
for an xsl:value-of element. So far, this looks to be providing what I
need, So, attached is an updated mixed_html.xsl which uses this
attribute to correctly. I am still interested in ideas about the "best"
way to do this, so if you have any to contribute, please share.

Hello Dev List,
I am sure that some of you have come across this situation before, so I
would like to pick your collective brains for some suggestions. The
situation is that I need to allow for mixed content (specifically HTML
tags) to be entered into a textarea in an xform. When chiba stores this
instance XML, all '<' and '>' and other symbols are translated
appropriately to entities (into < and > and so on) to allow for
processing and storage as valid XML. This is causing issues later
because I would like the mixed content to be kept intact when the
instance XML is later processed through XSLT. Now, I can get the XSLT
to pick up the exact contents using the copy-of element, but that leaves
the mixed content in its raw XML state of < and >. I could hack
something together in a different language which did a string replace
for all those entities which I expect, but I am really hoping that I am
just missing the obvious easy way to do this. Any ideas? As a test, I
have attached a simple XForm, XML instance, XSL to run it through, and
resulting HTML, just in case my description is not clear enough to see
what I am trying to accomplish. Thanks,
Zach Roberts
