Yes, I can view the file in IE. It is just the actual XSL conversion where there's, strangely, a problem. This is in fact the most mysterious thing, that I *can* view it in IE, but can't generate an HTML file. There's not a big difference there, ultimately, is there. Special characters with other files are no problem whatsoever. In reply to CUTLASS: output is html. In fact, I'm using the same stylesheet with another XML file, without problems. Encoding is UTF-8 for both XML and XSL file, same as with other files, again without any problems.
