Hi, I am trying to transform an XML document: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="bin.xsl"?> <doc> <binary> � </binary> </doc> into a binary file with the contents being the value of the binary element in the above using the following XSLT stylesheet: <?xml version="1.0"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:output encoding="utf-8" /> <xsl:template match="binary"> <xsl:value-of select="."/> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> I tried using MSXSL from Microsoft and I got an "Invalid unicode character" error. I also tried using Saxon and I got an "illegal XML character " error. In IE, those characters are displayed as rectangles (). I wonder why the XSLT processors are complaining about these characters and I wonder if it is possible to carry out such a transformation. Many thanks, Michael. -- __________________________________________________________ Sign-up for your own FREE Personalized E-mail at Mail.com http://www.mail.com/?sr=signup XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
