Yes. If the top level element in the output is <html>. (in any case, eg
<HTML> then then XSLT defaults to the html output type, if you want xml
output then you need <xsl:output type="xml"/>.

In HTML, PIs are terminated by > not ?>.
 ?> would be legal of course but the ? would be part of the content of
the PI not part of the delimiter.

Most browsers don't much like Pis at all but if it is a conforming HTML
parser then you don't want the second ?.
