Hello Is there a flag or an other possibility that saxon does not write <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> at the beginning of the file when generating XHTML Files? Greetings, Tobias Dreyschultze, Germany

<xsl:output omit-xml-declaration="yes"> At present however Saxon doesn't let you omit the XML declaration unless the encoding is UTF8 or UTF16, on the basis that the result would not be well-formed XML. The spec has gone the other way on this but Saxon hasn't caught up. Michael Kay

That was exactly what I was looking for, I didnt realize that <xsl:result-document> would allow the encoding attribute. I appreciate your help. Thanks, David Vanfleet
