Hello,
Here's the version I wrote this very day:
<xsl:template name="translateDoubleQuotes">
<xsl:param name="string" select="''" />
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="contains($string, '"')">
<xsl:text /><xsl:value-of select="substring-before($string, '"')" />\"<xsl:call-template name="translateDoubleQuotes"><xsl:with-param name="string" select="substring-after($string, '"')" /></xsl:call-template><xsl:text />
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:text /><xsl:value-of select="$string" /><xsl:text />
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
Very similar to what you have, but maybe it is different enough to help you out.
Thanks,
Brian

Subject: escaping quotes with \"
I found this snippet of code on the faq but don't quite understand it. So
if I want to escape all my quotes I just add this XSL to the bottom of my
page or do I need to associate every value of with it?
Please help out the newbie.. Thanks
<xsl:variable name="noQuote"><xsl:call-template name="cleanQuote">
<xsl:with-param name="string"><xsl:value-of select="$noLF"
/></xsl:with-param>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:template name="cleanQuote">
<xsl:param name="string" />
<xsl:if test="contains($string, '"')">
<xsl:value-of
select="substring-before($string, '"')" />\"<xsl:call-template
name="cleanQuote">
<xsl:with-param name="string"><xsl:value-of
select="substring-after($string, '"')" />
</xsl:with-param>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:if>
<xsl:if test="not(contains($string, '"'))"><xsl:value-of
select="$string" />
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
