I'm using transformiix. This only happens if I output an attribute, using
either attr="{$varname}" or <xsl:attribute>. This is really disturbing. Has
anyone else ran into this? Are there other ways to make an attribute? I can
wrap the string in a <![CDATA[]]>, but, that breaks people who want to use
this on other XSL processors.
