Post a code sample of how you are creating the document and invoking the transformer, and where your result is going. I'm sure someone can point out what you're doing wrong. > I tried to get around the problem by used CDATA as follows: > > <td><![CDATA[到]]></td><td>5/1/02</td> > > but that produces <td>&#21040;</td><td>5/1/02</td>, so the browser > displays &21040; instead of the chinese character. As it should. > (BTW, I thought CDATA > was supposed to be not parsed at all.) It is not parsed in the sense that it is not scanned for "&" and "<" characters indicating the start of more markup, but it is parsed in the sense that it is read by an XML parser and reported to the application as a block of character data just like any other character data; it is not flagged as being special in any way. It's just a convenience for the document author so you don't have to escape "&" and "<". Most of the time you should just pretend CDATA sections don't exist, because they won't help you in the way that you want them to. - Mike ____________________________________________________________________________ mike j. brown | xml/xslt: http://skew.org/xml/ denver/boulder, colorado, usa | personal: http://hyperreal.org/~mike/ XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
