Hi,

I am trying to convert an XML document to an ascii text file using XSL.
When I do that, I get some junk at the beginning of the file.

My input file XML is 
<PLATERESULTS>
<ANALYSISOPTIONS>
	<GENERICOPTIONS Threshold="7%"/>
</ANALYSISOPTIONS>
<ANALYSISSTATUS>
<PLATESTATUS><MESSAGE>Analysis Successful</MESSAGE><MESSAGE>(00000)
Difference in Row Marker Height Between Sippers of 82%.  Low total of 8.526,
High total of 46.436.</MESSAGE></PLATESTATUS>
</ANALYSISSTATUS>
<CHANNELRESULTS Channel="1" NoiseAvg="242.10" NoiseStdev="6.90">
	<WELLRESULTS>
	<WELL WellName="E7" WellStartTime="247.80" BaselineRSI="253.86"
DipRSI="11.88" PositivePercentInhibition="7.29" PeakRSI="5.67"
NegativePercentInhibition="3.48" NoiseFactor="1.36"
MinMaxDifference="18.01"/>
	<WELL WellName="E24" WellStartTime="348.00" BaselineRSI="245.84"
DipRSI="40.20" PositivePercentInhibition="24.66" PeakRSI="2.69"
NegativePercentInhibition="1.65" NoiseFactor="1.36"
MinMaxDifference="43.46"/>
	</WELLRESULTS>
</CHANNELRESULTS>
</PLATERESULTS>

My input XSL is
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
	<xsl:output method="text"/>
	<xsl:variable name="tab" select="'&#09;'" />
	<xsl:variable name="newline" select="'&#010;'" />
	<xsl:variable name="header">
 		<xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes">'&lt;START
DataVersion</xsl:text>
		<xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes">&gt;</xsl:text>
		<xsl:text>'Version</xsl:text>
		<xsl:value-of select="$tab"/>
		<xsl:text>1</xsl:text>
	</xsl:variable>

	 <xsl:template match="CHANNELRESULTS[1]//WELL[1]">
	 	<xsl:value-of select="$header"/>
	 	<xsl:value-of select="$newline"/>
	 	<xsl:for-each select="@*">
				<xsl:value-of select="name()"/>
				<xsl:value-of select="$tab"/>
		 	</xsl:for-each>
		 	<xsl:value-of select="$newline"/>
	 </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

But my output text file is:
163113109131Analysis Successful(00000) Difference in Row Marker Height
Between Sippers of 82%. Low total of 8.526, High total of 46.436.''Version 1
WellName WellStartTime BaselineRSI DipRSI PositivePercentInhibition PeakRSI
NegativePercentInhibition NoiseFactor MinMaxDifference 

Why do I get this junk value ?

Any help would be great.
Thanks,
Priya
