The encoding for the source document is only used to load the source 
document.

Similarly, the encoding for the stylesheet is only used to load the 
stylesheet.

In order to set the encoding to be used to write the output document, 
you must use the <xsl:output> tag in your stylesheet.

eg.
<xsl:output encoding="US-ASCII" />
