How to print the Currency symbol Euro in XSL1.0

Requiremnet: Converting xml to ASCII file with printing euro symbol.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:text>#x20a0;</xsl:text>

Output: â‚ ( Is the symbol is right in ascii format, not sure how to print the euro symbol in ascii format). Did any one tried the same?

Depends on what you want to do. If you just want to output the Euro symbol then just type it on keyboard if possible. On mine it's Ctrl+Alt+4. The Euro character reference is &-#-x-2-0-a-c-; (without the dashes).

Also, there is no such character as the Euro symbol in ASCII. ASCII is only a 128 sized character set.

Your encoding for the above XML file is UTF-8 (hence why you've written encoding="UTF-8").
