Replace <br>,</br> tags with <br/> using XSL

hie friends,

I want to change the HTML tags <br> and </br> which are responsible to break the paragraph or starting a sentence from the new line, with something like <br/> using XSL. Is it possible to replace these break tags (<br> & </br>) with <br/>. How can I do the same ?
any ideas....

Check this -

Code:

---

<xsl:template match="text()">
  <xsl:call-template name="break">
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template name="break">
  <xsl:param name="text" select="."/>
  <xsl:choose>
  <xsl:when test="contains($text, '&#xa;')">
      <xsl:value-of select="substring-before($text, '&#xa;')"/>
      <br/>
      <xsl:call-template name="break">
          <xsl:with-param name="text" select="substring-after($text,
'&#xa;')"/>
      </xsl:call-template>
  </xsl:when>
  <xsl:otherwise>
        <xsl:value-of select="$text"/>
  </xsl:otherwise>
  </xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>

In my XML script, I have tried this:

<xsl:template match="myelem">
<div>
<xsl:value-of select="translate(., '\n', '<br />')" />
</div>
</xsl:template>

But I get the folllowing error:

The character '<' cannot be used in an attribute value.
Error processing resource 'http://localhost/test.xml'...
<xsl:value-of select="translate(., '\n', '<br />')" />

You can try this - <xsl:value-of select="translate(., '\n', '&lt;br /&gt;')" />
