Hi Folks,

For last two days I was struggling with a problem of applying a XSL stylesheet to XML that had Danish characters (using entities like &#248; etc.). The output=HTML was working fine but when I tried to get text output I kept getting "Missing byte-order mark". I tried it with encoding of UTF-8 as well as UTF-16, it did not work. Finally I found a listing on google from this group from way back in 2002 http://www.xslt.com/xsl-list/2002-02/msg00675.html and it suggested to use encoding="iso-8859-1" and walla...it worked.
This is just for your information if anyone gets frustrated with similar problem.
Thanks
Vivek
