>3. Unzip xerces.jar, edit >java/src/org/apache/xml/serialize/HTMLEntities.res > and zip it back into xerces.jar I tried this, but it still doesn't solve the problem of keeping the unicode value in the cocoon output. 'mdash' is not recognized by Netscape. so i have to keep it as 151; i tried "#151 151" in HTMLEntities.res, but it simply comments the rest of the line out after '#'. (i also tried "\#151 151", but that put the literal '\' in, resulting with "&\#151;") if i can only get that '\' out! please help!! > Bettina Linssen wrote: > So the problem seems to be, that Cocoon transforms the > UNICODE-encoding (eg –) into the HTML-4-encoding (–), but > Netscape 4.75 just doesn't know what to do with that (different to IE5 > or Netscape 6). > > Is there any way to tell Cocoon NOT to transform these encodings ?? Yes, of course, it's an open-source project ! It's not Cocoon job, but Xerces. You can : 1. Ask on a Xerces Mailing list how to solve this. 2. Get Xerces source, edit java/src/org/apache/xml/serialize/HTMLEntities.res and rebuild xerces. 3. Unzip xerces.jar, edit java/src/org/apache/xml/serialize/HTMLEntities.res and zip it back into xerces.jar -- Sébastien Koechlin - IVision - [EMAIL PROTECTED] ===== -- Anthony E.
