Subject: [xsl] weird character B , how to make it disappear?


I'm trying to get a raquo character to appear, but I'm
getting a  B before it.
How do I get rid of this B  ??

I've got the following for my xsl file at the top:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='US-ASCII'?>
<!DOCTYPE xsl:stylesheet [
      <!ENTITY raquo  "&#x000BB;">
      <!ENTITY sep    " ">
]>

You might try removing one of the zeroes: &#x00BB;
I don't know whether that should make a difference,
but I think for Unicode, there are not supposed to be
more than four digits.

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
      <xsl:output method="html" encoding="US-ASCII"/>

then when I want the raquo to appear, my usage is:

&sep;&raquo;&sep;

but thru the browser, I'm getting as output:

B;

how do I make that B disappear?
I've also tried to change the encoding to iso-8859-1,
and the entity reference to &x187; but with no
success.  any help greatly appreciated.

I think what you wanted was &#187; (decimal, not hex).
&x187; isn't valid XML syntax anyway.


thanks
Paul
