I currently believe this statement to be true: In XPath 1.0 a single string literal cannot contain both single and double quotes. Is that accurate? If so I can delete an ugly branch in Jaxen. In XPath 1 and XSLT 1 you can do this to output a single apostrophe or quote respectively: <xsl:value-of select=' " ' " ' /> <xsl:value-of select=" ' " ' " /> To create a string with both literal apostrophe and quote, you can do this: <xsl:value-of select="concat( ' " ', " ' " ) "/> In XPath 2, this becomes much easier, because you can escape by using a double quote or apostrophe, like this: <xsl:value-of select=" ' " '' ' " /> Cheers, -- Abel Braaksma http://www.nuntia.nl | ||||||
