RE:  encoding shift_jis into an attribute
Matthew,

This works, but it won't work in all processors and all processing architectures; and generally speaking we frown on applications of XSLT to write tags. :-> (Now I've said that I feel free to let you do whatever you want.)

Of course, saxon:disable-output-escaping has the same limitation, but it's more explicit about it. You said it puts out the plain Unicode. Does it do this even if the xsl:output encoding is (say) ASCII?

Cheers,
Wendell

I found a solution to my problem.  Since I received so much help from
this newsgroup, I wanted to share my solution.  I'm building up the
surrounding text via xsl:text with disable-output-escaping="yes" so the
markup passes through.  Then I use xsl:value-of to get the numeric
character reference escaped text in the middle of the attribute.  It's a
little hacky, but it works.  You can see the details below.  Hopefully I
won't have any problems integrating this into my large stylesheet.
