It's not as if you can't have a curly brace as the content of xsl:variable. This seems like obfuscation without any practical purpose. And if you really need one of these as a string, how about: <xsl:variable name="leftbrace" select="'{'"/> That's likely more efficient than creating a result tree fragment. Fortunately, in an AVT, you can escape the { and } characters by having two of them: <a href="#" onclick="if (foo == false) {{bar = true; alert('ding');}} return false">Don't click me</a> See: http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt#attribute-value-templates "When an attribute value template is instantiated, a double left or right curly brace outside an expression will be replaced by a single curly brace."
