Re: [xsl] Entities Conversion

[mozer <xmlizer@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

The most simple ad hoc way is to change the input xml doc and create a
special DTD
<!ENTITY ldquo "&amp;ldquo;">
<!ENTITY rdquo "&amp;rdquo;">
<!ENTITY ndash "&amp;ndash;">
<!ENTITY mdash "&amp;mdash;">

But may be you can tell why you should do that ?
