Re: [xsl] xml:space preserve on element converted to html textarea encoding issue

[Karl Stubsjoen <kstubs@xxxxxxxxx>]

Correction:

This is legal:
    <xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="{$encoding}"
indent="yes"/>

I just had to change XSL version to 1.1, otherwise oxygen was giving
me an error on this line.
