I think that the problem here might be that Cocoon doesn't use the output instructions that you put in the stylesheet, but instead applies a formatter according to the cocoon.properties configuration file. You might want to change the default so that it outputs XML instead, by changing the formatter.default line in cocoon.properties: formatter.default = text/xml Or you should add a processing instruction to the source XML file to tell it to use the XML formatter rather than the HTML formatter: <?cocoon-format type="text/xml"?> As it was, using the HTML formatter, the ndash was being escaped as the character entity reference –, which is what NS was having problems with. With the XML formatter, the ndash character will be output as an ndash character rather than a character reference (or a character entity reference). If you want the character reference – rather than the raw ndash character, then you should change the encoding of the output to ISO-8859-1 or something such that 8211 is out of range of the characters that the encoding can handle. Again you need to do this through cocoon.properties, by adding the line: formatter.text/xml.encoding = ISO-8859-1 I hope that helps, Jeni --- Jeni Tennison http://www.jenitennison.com/ XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
