Re: trademark tag not rendered correctly in javahelp

/ "Bob Stayton" <bobs@sagehill.net> was heard to say:
| That was supposed to say "I'll *bet* you a nickel ...".
|
| Anyway, I decided this problem needed to be fixed for Xalan too, because the
| stylesheet is automatically *generating* the trademark character when the
| <trademark> element is used with no class attribute.  That's because the DTD
| says 'trademark' is the default value of the class attribute (to be fixed in
| the forthcoming 4.4 DTD), so it is automatically inserted by the parser. The
| XSLT processor can't tell if an attribute was defaulted or manually entered.

Alas, we can't fix that until 5.0 as it's backwards incompatible.
