[jira] Updated: (XALANJ-611) HTML output serializes ampersand as "&" in HREF attributes

     [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XALANJ-611?page=all ]

Brian Minchau updated XALANJ-611:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: patch.to.ToHTMLStream.txt

Attaching a patch to ToHTMLStream.java that modifies its writeAttrURI() method to special case a literal '&' just like it special cases a quotation character.

The patch writes out "&amp;" for a literal '&' in an HTML URI attribute value.

Henry Zongaro's sample XSL is essentially this:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet 
  xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
  version="1.0">
<xsl:template match="/">
  <HTML><a href="http://example.org/part&amp;amp;parcel"/></HTML>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

The original output is:
<HTML>
<a href="http://example.org/part&amp;parcel"></a>
</HTML>

With the patch the output is:
<HTML>
<a href="http://example.org/part&amp;amp;parcel"></a>
</HTML>
