Thanks for the reply mike. Upon testing, i noticed that
disable-output-escaping works on like   &#nbsp; while
failing with likes of ’ And I got more confused
looking at the html output and view source.
Yes, you got confused.
d-o-e="yes" causes special characters that would normally be escaped
(specifically < and &) to be output as < and & instead of < and &
d-o-e="yes" doesn't affect characters that wouldn't normally be escaped anyway,
or characters that are only being escaped because there's no other way to
represent them in the chosen output encoding.
My q's are:
1) I wish to know how to escape those 2019, 2018's etc
without them converting into single quotes ('s). In the
sense, I am expecting to get an output -
‘abnormality’ as in XML and not ‘abnormality’
use an encoding in which they can't be represented natively, e.g. <xsl:output
encoding="iso-9959-1"/>
2) On the browser, This publication 'ab' ‘abnormality’ is
seen as ...publication 'ab' ‘abnormality’ Why ‘ is
dipslayed as ‘?
Because your browser or your web server or something is misconfigured. The
document is encoded in UTF-8 and for some reason the browser isn't recognizing
it as such.
