If you want to use XSL your documents have to be well formed XML which
that definitely isn't. Can you do something like this?
<HRAF code="1">The Raboof blah blah blah blah yadda yadda. </HRAF><HRAF
code="2">
<HRAF code="1">Their women blah yadda blah blah.</HRAF> Meanwhile the
children
blah.</HRAF>
