Question: Should you get the UTF-16 meta-tag if you explicitly define
the charset in the output method to ISO-8859-1?
yes. If the output is in utf16 (which it often is with msxml whatever
you request in xsl:output.
this is why the XSLt spec specifies that the system add the meta
element: the stylesheet author can not do this accurately as (s)he has
no direct control over the acyual encoding in teh output, xsl:output is
just a hint.
