XML/XSL help

[Anon]

i pretty much need an XSL equivalent of nl2br().
more detail for those who care:

in my pages i have textares for people to type stuff into, that gets displayed on other pages.. not in a text area. so what they typed just becomes a big blob of text with no line breaks. normally in php you use nl2br() for this. well xsl does not have that.. that i know of. so i have an xml tag with text in it with line breaks.. but no <br>'s. how do i do this?
i could put them in after they type in the text... before i insert int othe db. but then when the user goes the edit the text again these mysterious <br>'s apear. and then when they hit submit again the <br>'s turn into &lt;br&gt; and new <br> apar where the \n's are. get my problem..

i dont actually think there is a solution to this yet.. but we'll see.

How about if you create a tag/function that would be a marker, on which you can do a replace/insert???
