Hrm, yes, I forgot that UTF-8 was multibyte. Thanks. I need it because this little part is being redirected into a plain ASCII-8 text file for use by another application. Can you suggest an encoding that would do this?

Oh, I see, you use disable-output-escaping="yes". That's why Xalan doesn't
escape 237 into &iacute; when outputting.
Why do you need it anyway?
In any case, output is right though.

thanks

Hi,

With these settings you should have gotten two bytes as a result of the
output of &iacute; in the UTF-8 encoding. This escape has unicode code 00ED,
which is translated into bytes C3 and AD in the UTF-8. So this is normal and
correct byte sequence for the symbol you want to output. I believe that all
clients should be able to read it correctly.
But I can't say why Xalan doesn't output escape &iacute; for the HTML output
method in this case. I can see it defined in the HTMLEntities.res file.

Thanks,
Dmitry

Right.

<xsl:output method="html" indent="no" doctype-public="-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01
Strict//EN" encoding="UTF-8"/>

and the stylesheet includes:

<!DOCTYPE xsl:stylesheet SYSTEM "html.ent">

which is a big list that defines every html entity plus a few, and which
normally works fine.
