Those "weird" characters are the same characters you get with html/chunk.xsl, except they are in UTF-8 encoding instead of character entities. You'll notice that the top of each output file says <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> so the characters are actually correct and should display ok in most browsers. If you truly don't like them, you need to change the output encoding. The default output encoding for the xhtml stylesheets is UTF-8. Since Xalan doesn't accept an option to set the output encoding the way Saxon or xsltproc (with exslt) does, you will have to create an XSL customization file that sets: <xsl:output method="xml" encoding="iso-8859-1"/> Then those special characters will like be output as character entities instead. -- Bob Stayton 400 Encinal Street Publications Architect Santa Cruz, CA 95060 Technical Publications voice: (831) 427-7796 The SCO Group fax: (831) 429-1887 email: bobs@sco.com
