Hi,
I set <xsl:output encoding="ISO-8859-1"/> in my xsl as encoding output but on a window system is rendered as a space ; on unix system is rendered as A^ (unique character) It look like the mapping is dependent by system. Possible?
In order to know for sure, a few more questions:
- Which JVMs are you using? (Which version on Windows, which one on Linux?) - Are you using the same XSLT processor on both platforms? If so, is it the same version? If not, maybe one of them doesn't fully support <xsl:output-encoding /> (as I recall, it is not mandatory according to the XSLT Spec.)
I'd also try posting this question on Xalan's user-list. If both XSLT processors are Xalan, their development team is far more likely to offer you an explanation...
What is your locale on linux? Type the word locale at a command line prompt.
  is A0 in hex; 1100 0000 in binary. When this value is represented in UTF-8, it becomes the two-byte sequence 1100 0011 1000 0000, or C2 80 in hex. C2 is the  (capital A with circumflex) character that you are seeing in linux. The 80 is, I believe, treated as a null character, i.e. like 00, when encountered in an ISO 8859-1 character set. So it looks as though your   is beng translated into UTF-8, then read on your linux system as two ISO 8859-1 (or -15) characters.
