Hi theresa,
é is an UTF-8 sequence (0xC3 0xA9) that encode EACUTE as UTF-8;
 is an UTF-8 sequence (0xEF 0xBB 0xBB) that encode The
BOM as UTF-8 (this is the UTF-8 signature);
You should have a look on how char encoding is handled in your app, it
that seems to be an issue there.
That said, to convert a string in XSLT I imagine to ways:
either in pure XSLT, using a recursive template (see below),
or using embedded script (see [1] for Xalan).
<xsl:template match="text()">
<xsl:call-template name="text"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template name="text">
<xsl:param name="str" select="."/>
<xsl:param name="find" select="' '"/>
<xsl:param name="replace" select="' '"/>
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="contains($str,$find)">
<xsl:value-of select="substring-before($str,$find)"/>
<xsl:value-of select="$replace"/>
<xsl:call-template name="text">
<xsl:with-param name="str"
select="substring-after($str,$find)"/>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:value-of select="$str"/>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
