Re: [xsl] JDK14/JDOM: generating a DOCTYPE decl. in output?

[David Carlisle <davidc@xxxxxxxxx>]

If you are generating HTML 4, you don't want to force the xml output
method

 <xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes" encoding="utf-8"
  doctype-public="-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
  doctype-system="http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd";
  omit-xml-declaration="no" />

otherwise there will be no way to get HTML syntax for empty elements,
script elements etc.
If you change that to method="html" (which would be the default anyway)
the output will use HTML syntax and also automatically add a
specification of the encoding used into the head element.
