The decision whether to display " as " or as &_quot_; is made by the serializer, not by the transformation engine, and the specifications don't give you a direct way to control this. You shouldn't need to, because anyone who processes XML documents correctly should be able to handle both forms. But if, for example, you need to send the XML to someone who isn't handling XML correctly, then you might be able to achieve the desired effect using
<xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes">&quot;</xsl:text>
Be aware that this might not work on all processors.
