* Chris Tomlinson | | I'm using XP and SAX and have no problem with ISO 8859-1, so I doubt | that your problem is with SAX. Maybe this warrants a longer explanation. Since the Java version of SAX is defined in Java, the character set used in all strings is tacitly assumed to be Unicode, since Java uses this as its internal character set. Also, SAX uses the Java distinction between byte streams (where characters are represented in terms of their raw byte encoding) and character streams (where the bytes have been interpreted into Unicode characters). So, SAX delivers Unicode characters to the application (in this case the XSL engine), and whether ISO 8859-1 can be handled or not depends entirely on whether the parser can decode ISO 8859-1 into Unicode. Hopefully, this clarified things a bit. (Or at least muddied the waters thoroughly. :) --Lars M. XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
