http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25814 encoding bug in xsl:comment Summary: encoding bug in xsl:comment Product: XalanJ2 Version: 2.5Dx Platform: PC OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: Xalan AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I used the current binaries from xalanj2 (Version 2.5.2) and I've found a bug with the processing of xsl:comment. If you try to transform a xml-file via the following xsl-file <?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="xml" encoding="ISO-8859-1"/> <xsl:template match="test"> <xsl:comment>Kommentar Björn:<xsl:value-of select="'test'"/></xsl:comment> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> you get the following exception: Exception in thread "main" javax.xml.transform.TransformerException: org.xml. sax.SAXException: Attempt to output character of integral value 246 that is not represented in specific output encoding of . This exception does not occur if you just have within the xsl-file a comment like <xsl:comment>Kommentar Björn:</xsl:comment> but again does occur if the xsl-file contains a comment like <xsl:comment><xsl:value-of select="'test Björn'"/></xsl:comment> It seems that if the xsl-comment has got more or something else than a single text-child that the specified encoding is not used. Thus if you then use special characters of these encodings like the 'ö' out of ISO-8859-1, you get the above exception.
