Hi everyone,
When I output my DocBook XML to HTML, I have a bunch of weird character
entities cropping up in my HTML output. The capital letter "A" with
circumflex appears in the document after the following:
- autonumbering of chapters and sections
(example: ChapterA 1.AChaptername
-- the A being an A with circumflex)
- At the end of each formalpara title
- In cross-references.
- Also, in places where I have use publishing entities (such as en dashes --
–) they get replaced by wierd characters.
After reading Bob's book, I change my XSL customization layer to this:
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0"
xmlns:saxon="http://icl.com/saxon"
extension-element-prefixes="saxon">
<xsl:import href="tools/xsl/xhtml/chunk.xsl"/>
<xsl:output
method="html"
encoding="UTF-8"
indent="yes"
saxon:character-representation="native;decimal"/>
</xsl:stylesheet>
I just know where to go from here. I am using Saxon on a Windows machine.
Thanks,
René
