Hello,
The other day I was looking at section 2.1 of XSLT 1.0 [1]. It
states in part that "An element from the XSLT namespace may have any attribute not
from the
XSLT namespace, provided that the expanded-name of the attribute has a
non-null namespace URI. The presence of such attributes must not change
the behavior of XSLT elements and functions defined in this document." The
same text appears in section 3.1 of XSLT 2.0.
Does anybody know how to reconcile that text with the behaviour of
xsl:output attributes, such as xalan:use-url-escaping and
xalan:omit-meta-tag? In a case like xalan:indent-amount, there's no
*real* change in behaviour, but in the other two cases I've mentioned,
there is. Any opinions about this?
Thanks,
Henry
