[xsl] JavaScript and UTF-8 International Characters

["Steven Egert" <stvne@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am trying to get the value returned to a JavaScript function to be the 
UTF-8 encoded value in a transformation.  But whenever I use a JavaScript 
function and pass a value to that function, that value always comes in 
unencoded, and when I try to run the script with this value it runs, but the 
values returned are useless.  Here is a copy of my transform:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" 
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"; xmlns:a="DAV:"

XSLUtils a">

omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>

<xsl:param name="LinkTarget" select="' '"></xsl:param>

<xsl:template match="/">

 </xsl:if>
</td>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

The two java functions that I am having problems passing international 
characters two are keyWordsPop and Open.  Any help you can give me would be 
greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Steve
