Re: [xsl] document( URI ) with accented chars fails

["Michael Kay mike@xxxxxxxxxxxx" <xsl-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The document() function expects a URI, not a filename, and URIs never contain
accented characters.

XSLT 2.0+ has functions to escape special characters using %HH escapes so you
can turn arbitrary filenames into valid URIs.

For xsltproc you'll need some processor-specific solution and I can't help you
with that.
