We are trying to follow
http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt#section-HTML-Output-Method where it says "The
html output method should escape non-ASCII characters in URI attribute
values using the method recommended in Section B.2.1 of the HTML 4.0
Recommendation."
But, this is very problematic. We took it out for a while, then put it
back in because another user was having problems with it not being in.
Argh!!! What's a poor XSLT processor coder to do? I would love to find
the right behavior for this. I'm certainly not very happy with the current
behavior in Xalan.

OK, not sure why it's not.

If I do:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version
="1.0">
<xsl:output method="html"/>
<xsl:template match="/"><html><img>
</img></html></xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
I get:
<html>
<img></html>
So I'm not sure what's going on.
