I'm converting XML with XSL to produce CSV files and the XML documents may contain the string '&' as part of a text node. For example <name>J & G Bloggs</name>.

When the XSL has <xsl:value-of select="name"/>, it returns 'J & G Bloggs', rather than the desired, 'J & G Bloggs'.

No, it returns "J & G Bloggs". Serializing the output as XML causes the bytes "J & G Bloggs" to be written to the file, which is correct.

Is there anyway to get our desired result without having to change all the <xsl:value-of> elements in all our CSV stylesheets to include the disable-output-escaping="yes" attribute?

If you don't want XML output (and CSV is not XML), try requesting something other than XML output. For instance, try using

<xsl:output method="text"/>
