I can't reproduce this. Using Saxon 6.5.2, and the template:
<form>
<xsl:attribute name="action" saxon:disable-output-escaping="yes"
xmlns:saxon="http://icl.com/saxon">
<xsl:text><%=request.getRequestURI()%></xsl:text>
</xsl:attribute>
</form>
with the HTML output method generates
<form action="<%=request.getRequestURI()%>"></form>
What release are you using? (use the -t option to find out)
I can't see how you got a %25 in the output. Firstly,
saxon:disable-output-escaping prevents URI escaping as well as XML
escaping. Secondly, even when URI escaping happens, Saxon never escapes
% characters - only non-ASCII characters, as dictated by the spec.

Subject: [xsl] How do you set the action attribute for an
HTML form using XSLT?
Hi. I'm trying to transform XML into an HTML/JSP page.
I've followed the suggestion at
http://www.dpawson.co.uk/xsl/sect2/N1553.html#> d1670e229
using:
<xsl:attribute name="action"
saxon:disable-output-escaping="yes"
xmlns:saxon="http://icl.com/saxon">
<xsl:text><%=request.getRequestURI()%></xsl:text>
</xsl:attribute>
and have tried mine:
<xsl:attribute name="action">
<xsl:text
disable-output-escaping="yes"><%=request.getRequest
URI()%></xsl:text>
</xsl:attribute>
but neither seem to work for the action attribute of the
HTML form tag. My way and the suggestion seem to work fine
with say the input tag. I've tried all sorts of variations,
but I just can't get it to work.
This is what I get:
<form method="get" action="<%25=request.getRequestURI()%25>">
And of course I'd like:
<form method="get" action="<%=request.getRequestURI()%>">
What am I missing or is this truely a bug?
Thanks,
Ricardo J. Castillo
