How would I, using XQuery, transform

<author>John Smith</author>

to

<author><![CDATA[John Smith]]></author>

?

Also, how would I transform

<content>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Hello&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content>

to

<content><![CDATA[<p><em>Hello</em></p>]]></content>

?

If it matters, I am using XSLPalette.app.
