Malformed META tag

meta tag formation
Hi All,
            I'm a greenhorn at XSLT so please be gentle :). I'm working
with MSXML 4 and VC++. I'm just trying to do a very simple x-formation
(the customary Hello World!). The result of this x-formation i need as
an object so i use the transformNodeToObject() method. Here it fails
stating that the resulting DOM object is not in proper shape...the
culprit being the <META> tag that get added to the x-formation result

<META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-16">

...it has no tag closure. This occurs only if I have a <HEAD> tag
defined as part of my xsl file.

Is there some work-around for this ? Or am I going about this in the
right way ?

thanks in advance,

gautam

The XSL file :

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet
      xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">
 <xsl:output method="html" encoding="utf-8"/>
 <xsl:template match="/hello-world">
 <HTML>
  <HEAD>
   <TITLE> This is the title </TITLE>
  </HEAD>
  <BODY>
   <H1><xsl:value-of select="greeting"/></H1>
   <xsl:apply-templates select="greeter"/>
  </BODY>
 </HTML>
 </xsl:template>
 <xsl:template match="greeter">
    <DIV>from
     <I><xsl:value-of select="."/></I>
    </DIV>
 </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

The XML file:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="hello.xsl"?>
<hello-world>
   <greeter>An XSLT Programmer</greeter>
   <greeting>Hello, World!</greeting>
</hello-world>
