Re: [xsl] What is a bulletproof way to assign a variable this value: single quote, value of an element, single quote?

Hi Martin,

Indeed, and now I am thinking about how I could get the serializer to rewrite
the stuff coming in before bringing it through, as it were.

Alas, I haven't the time to research at the moment how to get the processor to
use two different character maps in the same run.

Because Roger could use a character map first, then his delimiter code
(without the map). But then he couldn't stream, or he'd have to hook one
streamer to another....

Cheers (thinking too hard not too easy),
Wendell

Use a character map so the apos character in "O'Neil" is rewritten into some

That wouldn't work as there is not only the single quote in the data (e.g.
"O'Neil") but also in the surrounding delimiters. A character map used later
on serialization would rewrite both.
