Output £ string using XSLT

[thomas]

Hi folks,

I was wandering how I can output a £ symbol in front of the price of
something, at the moment, it only outputs the number.

Heres the line from the xsl page i'm using:-

<td><xsl:apply-templates select="./price" /></td>


and heres the xml file:-

<cat>
<data>
<item>hat</item>
<colour>black</colour>
<price>45</price>
</data>
</cat>

Use unicode or some entities??
I think there is a html entity for the symbol you want.

Doesnt that solve your problem??
