Re: [xsl] Xalan Encoding Problems

["Raul Rodriguez" <raulnyc at hotmail dot com>]

First of all I want to thank the community with their response to my 
question.  Unfortunately, I still have the same problem.

Jorg:

I copied your sample code and placed them in new XML and XSL files.  I ran 
the latest version of Xalan and got the following result

xalan -in test.xml -xsl test.xsl -out test.out

SystemId Unknown; Line 0; Column 0; XSLT Error 
(javax.xml.transform.TransformerE
xception): org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: The encoding "iso-8859-1" is not 
supported.

No output file was created.  I also checked the open bugs list of Xalan and 
came across the following bug which I am not sure is related

http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1639
