I do this by using an entity :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE mydoc SYSTEM "w:\xo\test\sgml\dtd\mydoc.dtd"
[
<!ENTITY xoPubDir CDATA "..\">

and then :
       (make empty-element gi: "link"
                   attributes: (list (list "href" 
(string-append (entity-text "xoPubDir") "css/xoteam04.css"))
                                     (list "type" "text/css")
                                     (list "rel" "stylesheet")))))

It works under Linux with slashes and under Windows with backslashes (and 
slashes too !).
Anyway, I am not really sure that you have to use backslashes. The
standard in URLs is to use normal slashes.

Hope it helps.
