Re: [xsl] escaping/entities on the fly?

["Gabriel K." <gabriel.klappenbach@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Yeah in the e-mail adress yes, but this is actually in the subject line, 
like so:
href= mailto:adress@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=kabelskep

But of course the same restriction applies to everything in the href 
attribute.

I'm using outlook express. So it seems what I need is to convert to HTML 
entities instead of %HH, since outlook can't display those characters 
correctly.
But this is not possible in XSLT 1.0 so I'm screwed I guess. :)

I'm afraid this is a question about the mail software that you're using, not
about XSLT. I don't know the answer. It might not even be possible: as far
as I'm aware, the internet RFC's for SMTP email only allow Ascii characters
in email addresses.
