Anyone encountered this before,
when I run the following xslt over an xml file using the commandline msxsl.exe
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"; version="1.0"
>
<xsl:output method="xml" encoding="UTF-8" omit-xml-declaration="no"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:copy-of select="/"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
and the xml file only has the english character set then the output has an xml
declaration of utf-8 but the actual content of the document is ANSI
if the xml file has other than the english character set then the output has an
xml declaration of utf-8 and the actual content of the document is utf-8.
Has anyone ever observed this bug before?
This is a ' bug' of the UTF-8 encoding. The english characters are
encoded in 1 byte in this encoding. And this byte is the same as in the
ASCII encoding. This is why you can't make the difference between utf-8
encoded file with only english letters and ASCII file.
