Re: [xsl] Getiing Confused in Encoding Plz Help

Hi Mike
    u r rigth, i changed the encoding tags of my XML and XSL file (both r
available below)
now the html i m getting on the client shows me no japanese characters, but
only questions marks "?"
what could be the reason

the XSL file (saved as UTF-8 with signature)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="html" version="4.0" encoding="utf-8"/>
<xsl:template match="/address">
<html>
<head>
<meta HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" Content="text-html" charset="utf-8"></meta>
</head>
<body>
<page>
    <xsl:apply-templates/>
</page>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="*">
<xsl:value-of select="name()"/> :
<xsl:value-of select="current()"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

the XML file (saved as UTF-8 with signature)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<address>
<city>東京</city>
<section>千代田区</section>
<street>紀尾井町4-1</street>
<zip>102-0094</zip>
</address>


The ASP code for  HTML generation

 Set Source = server.CreateObject("MSXML2.DomDocument")
 Set stylesheet = server.CreateObject("MSXML2.DomDocument")

  ' Load data.
  Source.async = False
  Source.Load xmlfile.xml

  stylesheet.async = False
  stylesheet.Load xslfile.xsl

  HTMLText = source.transformNode(stylesheet)

  Response.Write HTMLText
