Subject: RE: [xsl] encoding problem From: "Michael Kay" <mhk@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 12 Apr 2004 22:33:00 +0100 |
There's a problem in the specs here. The href attribute is required to be a legal URI Reference, and to ensure this, the XSLT serialization spec requires that the "_" is encoded as %C3%9F. But no similar encoding is applied to the name or id attribute of the anchor (and it would be illegal, at least in XHTML, because % is not allowed in an NCName); and some browsers at least won't match a %C3%9F in the fragment identifier of the href URI to a "_" in the name attribute. I think what this means in practice is that it's unsafe to use non-ASCII characters in the names of HTML anchors.
