Re: 8bit ascii encoding
> as c only understands 8bit ascii
there's a lot of programs written in C that can do more than ascii...
however I think you just want
<xsl:value-of select="translate(.,'‘’',"''")"/>
don't you?
If you don't want to translate the left and right quotes to straight
ascii quotes, then you should be able to do output ‘ as ‘
rather than as utf-8 multi byte sequence by using
<xsl:output encoding ="...."/>
where .... is an encoding name that
a) your XSLT processor knows and
b) does not contain the character 8216.
ASCII or US-ASCII or iso-8859-1 all satisfy (b) at least.
