Re: Fw: Bug in SAXON (entity/character set ) ??

Thanks very much for your response. In my example I had a declaration
of <?xml version='1.0' encoding="ISO-8859-1" standalone="yes"  ?>
I looked at the outputted file using IE/Netscape both confiured to use Arial
font. All things were equal except one was a SAXON transform and the other
MSXML.
