RE: [xml-dev] suppression of the transformation of character entities in XSLT?

Title: Message

You're best off asking XSLT coding questions on the xsl-list at www.mulberrytech.com

 

But the chances are that the output is fine, it's just encoded in a format (UTF-8) which your editor doesn't know how to display. Choose a different editor, or a different output encoding (e.g. <xsl:output encoding="iso-8859-1"/>).

Subject: [xml-dev] suppression of the transformation of character entities in XSLT?

Hello, I encounter a xslt-problem, which should be easy, but I dont find an solution.

 

I have some XML-Files which I am processing through an XSLT (on an IIS5 with MSXML 4.0) to split the files into various different other XML-Files.

 

My problem is the automatic transformation of the charachter entities like &#nnnn; into whatever character they represent, with the result of skrewed up content in the end.  

 

Is there someone out there who knows a solution for this, without using CDATA.

 

thanks
