Jonathan,

According to the spec, newlines output within attribute text should be
entitized to &#xA.  The July release had not yet implemented this.  Having
said that, there is a bug in Sep MSXML where #xA; is being output rather
than &#xA;.  Unfortunately, this means that newlines within attribute values
are not going to work correctly until the next release (which should be out
soon).

Using the  MSXML July release, this code,  &#xD; suffixed by ;) within a
text
element within an attribute
element used to output a carriage return in the html; that's what we wanted.

Now (using the September MSXML release) it doesn't - just outputs something
like
#xA. The same XSL & XML files work with instant Saxon.

However, the tab, #x9, still works.

What's the story?

Has anyone had the same problem?

Is it a bug?
