Thanks David for your reply.

Actually I have tried both the ways to define INPUT element 
but I always get wrong result.

I am using Apache's XSLTC for XSL transformation.

Following are the parameters used to provide TransformerFactor class :

String key = "javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory";
String value = "org.apache.xalan.xsltc.trax.TransformerFactoryImpl";

What is the normal behaviour when you specify special 
character value in attribute value ?

  Code snippet in xsl : 

  <xsl:variable name="special_character">&#197;</xsl:variable>
  <xsl:element name="INPUT"> <!-- INPUT -->          
	<xsl:attribute name="name">test</xsl:attribute>
        <xsl:attribute name="value">
		<xsl:value-of select="$special_character"/>
	</xsl:attribute>
  </xsl:element>



that should produce the same as this equivalent snippet of xslt, there's
no need to use any element in the xsl namespace to generate this
INPUT element.


<INPUT name="test" value="&#197;"/>



   Acutal Output in Input element : %c5 <-- Wrong


Which xslt system are you using? There's no reason why the serialiser
should be URL-encoding the value attribute. Looks like a bug to me.
