> I have some valid xml embedded in a CDATA section:
You have some XML but there are no XML element's there, that is just a
string and forms identical input to XSL as the string
<element attr="100"><a>100</a><b>200</b></element>
You could use the disable-output-encoding attribute of xsl:value-of and
if you are writing the XML to a file, it might possibly work.
Alternatively you can clean up the input befor passing it to XSLT by
using sed or some other character based eding filter to remove the
<![CDATA[ and ]]> then XSLT would see the elements and you'd be able to
query them in the usual way.
Either way

complain to the person who does control the source:-)
