xml xslt issue with html tags

If you print a dataset to a xml and if one of the values of a XML node has html tags they will be converted

for ex a "<" will be converted to a  "&lt;"  etc... when using style sheet to convert the XML use the following in XSL to

disable-output-escaping="yes"

   <xsl:value-of select="img1" disable-output-escaping="yes" />
