Xalan lets you override their HTMLEntities.res file, which maps characters
to named character entities. You do this by using xalan:entities="<your
file name>" in the xsl:output element. See this link for details:
http://cocoon.it.jyu.fi/docs/xalan/readme.html#to-do Search for
'HTMLEntities.res' on the page.
I suppose you could create a blank file, insert it into xalan.jar, and
point to it with that attribute. Or possibly you could just set
xalan:entities="" and see what happens.
