Maybe (from the limited perspective of your immediate needs), but it is conformant with section 16 of the XSLT spec. > I changed the output type to xml, and that fixed that > problem, but then I ran into the problem with all the  's in the > documents.

(doesn't this violate the XHTML rec. anyhow?), or how to XT is not producing XHTML. It is producing a form of HTML which actually works with current browsers. So, no, no violation there. > overcome the UTF-8 problem I run into with the text output solution? If this is really, absolutely necessary, you could hack the text() template to detect 0xa0 and replace it with . The input to the next phase of XML processing you mentioned might not then be valid, though. You might get somewhere by investigating the output encoding, but I'm not familiar enough with XT to say these days. I've switched irrevocably to Saxon; you might look at that instead.
