The Xalan HTML output mode should produce HTML, not XHTML... *IF* you're going through Xalan's serializers. If you're producing SAX or DOM output and letting someone downstream convert that into tags, you're at the mercy of *their* serializer.
So try running your stylesheet through stand-alone Xalan. If you still get XHTML output, submit it as a bug. If you don't, it's time to look at how Xalan is being invoked from Cocoon. ______________________________________ Joe Kesselman / IBM Research
