Re: [xslt] Text output

["William M. Brack" <wbrack mmm com hk>]

I don't think I understand the problem - when I do a simple example
stylesheet:

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
  <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
  <xsl:output method="text" encoding="iso-8859-1"/>
  <xsl:template match="/">
    <xsl:text>
      &lt;entities inside xsl:text&gt;
    </xsl:text>
    &lt;just a little junk&gt;
    <xsl:apply-templates/>
  </xsl:template>
  </xsl:stylesheet>

and then apply it against an equally simple xml file:

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
  <TOP>
    &lt;XML data&gt;
  </TOP>

then run our old, reliable xsltproc I get:-
bill@billrouter:/usr/src/libxslt-0.9.0/libxslt$ ./xsltproc bb.xsl bb.xml

  <entities inside xsl:text>

  <just a little junk>

  <XML data>

What am I missing?
