Hi Hussein, It works! Thanks a lot!
Now a slight one: the output of the XHTML is not very well formatted. In my Firefox, it reads like: <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";><head><title>?XXE??DocBook</title><link rel="stylesheet" href="html.css" type="text/css"/><meta name="generator" content="DocBook XSL Stylesheets V1.73.1"/><link rel="start" href="index.html" title="?XXE??DocBook"/><link rel="next" href="ar01s01.html" title="1. XXE?????"/></head><body><div class="navheader"><table width="100%" summary="Navigation header"><tr><th colspan="3" align="center">?XXE??DocBook</th></tr><tr><td width="20%" align="left"> </td><th width="60%" align="center"> </th><td width="20%" align="right"> <a accesskey="n" href="ar01s01.html">Next</a></td></tr></table><hr/></div><div class="article" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title"><a id="d0e1"/>?XXE??DocBook</h2></div><div><div class="author"><h3 class="author"><span class="firstname">Taylor</span> <span class="surname">Ren</span></h3><div class="affiliation"><span class="orgname">Somewhere On Earth<br/></span></div></div></div><div><p class="pubdate">2008.09.27</p></div></div><hr/></div><div class="toc"><p><b>Table of Contents</b></p><dl><dt><span class="section"><a href="ar01s01.html">1.

Therefore if you don't mind generating XHTML rather than HTML, the simplest thing to do is to switch to XHTML. Using the Professional or Evaluation Edition, this is quite simple to do: [1] Open the document you want to convert to activate the right configuration. [2] Select menu item Options|Customize Configuration|Document Conversion Preferences. [3] Check "Generate XHTML rather than HTML". [4] Click OK. Of course, this is done once for all (that is, your preferences are persistent across editing sessions). --> If you really want to generate HTML and not XHTML, then this becomes more complicated: * You generate multi-page HTML: Using the Professional or Evaluation Edition, [1] Open the document you want to convert to activate the right configuration. [2] Select menu item Options|Customize Configuration|Change Document Conversion Parameters. [3] Select "Convert to multi-page HTML" using the combobox found at the top of the dialog box. [3] Click on Add [4] Specify chunker.output.encoding as the name of the parameter and UTF-8 as the value of the parameter. [5] Click OK. [6] Click OK. This parametrization is done once for all. * You generate single-page HTML: You are out of luck because this requires customizing the DocBook configuration by hand. How to do this is explained here: http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/configure/customizing.html
