If you say "This is in UTF8" in XML you would write <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf8"?> but an HTML rendere (which is where you need to send the output of your stylesheet if using IE) does not read the xml declaration. If you sent the output of the stylesheet to the xml side of IE then it would read the encoding declaration, but wouldn't render the document. If you generate XHTML output and give it to IE to be rendered, it only works in so far as its lax HTML error reporting does not generate errors on XML syntax. So <?xml does nothing, <br></br> makes two line breaks rather than one, script and style elements are read a SGML CDATA elements, etc. Mozilla has native XHTML rendering so doesn't have this problem.
