Eddy,
This is off topic for the list, but:
If by "attribute literal" you mean an attribute value literal, "/" is
allowed in CDATA attribute values. When you're not performing DTD
validation, all attributes are considered CDATA.
(Back on topic: it would be kind of tough for XSL if "/" were not allowed
in an attribute value.)
This is the kind of thing that's pretty easy to test if you have a parser
you trust.
