Subject: [xsl] Saxon is adding line breaks

Hi all,

I'm sorry if this issue has already been addressed here.  But Saxon is
adding line breaks in the middle of text for no apparent 
reason.  Is there
a way to turn this off?

Here's an example of the source and result elements.  (It's 
from a French
document.):

source:
<title>Introduction aux applications Marketing du système de 
gestion des
relations avec la clientèle de PeopleSoft</title>

result:
<title>Introduction aux applications Marketing du 
syst&#xe8;me de gestion
des relations avec la client&#xe8;le de PeopleSoft</title>

Before writing the new title, I run a normalize-space() on 
the title text.
I can't imagine this is causing the problem.  (And, no, my 
text editor is
not adding the breaks ;-)

Any ideas appreciated.  Thanks.

The only way I could reproduce this problem on Saxon 6.5.2 (or on MSXML 3)
was to use text output without specifying an encoding, or specifying utf-8.
Support for different encoding formats for text output are
implementation-dependent, and it's likely only a narrow set (like ISO
8859-1) is supported.

Setting the encoding to iso-8859-1 (or specifying XML output) fixed the
problem, but that may not be the appropriate solution for all locales.

cheers,
b.
