Yes, why don't you show us samples of the actual source, xslt, and
resulting HTML which display the behavior?

But please, try to simplify them down to just the core bit that displays
the behavior!  Also, be sure to include the complete xsl:output element
and any meta elements in the output html that specify the character set.

Basically, it sounds like the browser you are viewing the file with is
set for a different encoding than the html file is created in, like
iso-8859-1 vs utf-8.  That could happen if the html file contains no
meta element specifying the encoding.  Sometimes this ends up with the
browser unable to show the correct characters.
