encoding="utf-8" ?

[peter]

When I transform a dataset to a xml file by applying a
xslt file, why by default, a "encoding=" utf-8" ?" is
added to the output file?How to get rid of it?
Thanks

Because UTF-8 is default output encoding. Try
omit-xml-declaration="ye s" attribute on xsl:stylesheet element to get
rid of xml declaration.

And don't want to? You cannot get rid of just encoding declaration. Why
do you care? UTF-8 is default anyway.

Why do you want to get rid of that? The XML declaration with the
encoding specified is part of the XML syntax so any XML parser should be
able to process your XML file without problems.
If you want a different encoding use
<xsl:output encoding="iso-8859-1" />
for instance.
