RE: HTML output and entities

The xsl:value-of element also has the disable-output-escaping attribute
available. Perhaps, selecting proper yes/no value would assist you.

Thank You for Your answer!
The problem seems to be caused by the fact, that the whole tag is generated
depending on some context. So the code looks more like this:

<xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes">&lt;input
value=&#34;</xsl:text><xsl:value-of
select="$some-var-containing-the-quot"/><xsl:text
disable-output-escaping="yes">&#34;&gt;</xsl:text>
