XSLT » xsl:output » method="html" | "qname" | "text" | "xml"
The optional method attribute dictates the type of output. The three permitted values are HTML, text and XML. (Some XSLT processors recognize a qname as being an acceptable value for this attribute, but it is not part of the W3C standard.) The default is XML. However, if the first child element of the root node is the HTML <html> tag and there are no preceding text nodes, then the default output type is set to HTML.
