The characters are not just the ASCII bytes.
I think you will need to match on the characters in question and replace
them with the desired character, e.g.:
<xsl:template match="text()[contains(., '’')]">
<xsl:value-of select="replace(., '’', '’')"/>
<xsl:template/>
And then use a more complete identity transform that handles the text
nodes:
Thank you for the response. I'm afraid I'm guilty of providing an
incomplete picture of my issue: I'm not sure what malformed(?) characters
are in the input documents. My apologies for leaving that detail out, but
seems like it would present a fairly significant problem for doing a
replace().
Cheers,
Eliot
Again, thank for your time and trouble.
