The XSLT 1.0 spec doesn't say explicitly what the processor should do in this situation, but it does say that the serializer must generate well-formed XML. XML encoded in anything other than UTF-8 or UTF-16 must have an XML declaration to be well-formed, so something has to give. With Saxon, it's the omit-xml-declaration that gives, and that's what's specified in XSLT 2.0. Michael Kay XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
