Re: [xsl] ampersand fun

Hi Martin,

I've had the same problem and people explained to me that it is an encoding
problem. Unless you specify the encoding (like this, for example):
<xsl:output name="html" method="html" encoding="UTF-8"/>

there is no guarantee what the browser will assume. In addition you might
want to use this:

& # 1 6 9 ; (without the spaces)

rather than this:

&amp;

in your XSLT

HTH

cheers

Malcolm
