Xsltc treats special characters different than xalan.

           Summary: Xsltc treats special characters different than xalan.
           Product: XalanJ2
           Version: 2.3
          Platform: Sun
        OS/Version: Solaris
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Xalan-Xsltc
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Xsltc treats special characters different than xalan. Below is the test case:

When applying stylesheet test.xsl to test.xml using xalan and xsltc 
respectively, we get different results:

(with xsltc)
> java org.apache.xalan.xsltc.cmdline.Transform test.xml test
<a href="javascript:addToMyCustomer
(&amp;quot;10000&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;&amp;quot;)"></a>

(with xalan)
> java XmlTest test.xml test.xsl
<a href="javascript:addToMyCustomer(&quot;10000&quot;,&quot;&quot;)"></a>

There should be a unified outcome for any xslt processor.
