I needed to include a “Person or Group” list element into an XSLT view of the document library. The problem when I did this was that it displays the HTML markup rather than rendering the HTML.

To fix this, I found this handy xsl:template here: http://dotnetslackers.com/Community/blogs/kaushalparik/archive/2008/08/3…

Worked a treat and took way less time than writing the template myself would have. (One thing to note: you’ll want to use “@” in front of the field name you are replacing–in the example this is “DescriptionField”.)
