trouble with text mode output of newlines

[Sven Doerr <do...@time4you.de>]

hello,


i have a bit trouble with the output of text using
<xsl:output method="text" /> :

<xsl:value-of select="'&'" />     gives a parse error (that's ok)
<xsl:value-of select="'&amp;'" /> gives "&amp;" (should be "&")
<xsl:value-of select="'&#xA;'" /> gives a space (should be a newline)

so how can i output a "&", and how a line break ?


regards,
  -sven-


(i am using xalan version 1.2.1 on
 java Classic VM build Linux_JDK_1.2.2_RC4, native threads, sunwjit)

oops; the output method did not take effect because i
specified the xml method in the serializer explicitly.
the above results then came from the xml method.
it works now ;-)
