Create the following files:

a.dtd:

<!ELEMENT a (b*)>
<!ELEMENT b (#PCDATA)>


a.xml:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE a SYSTEM "a.dtd">

<a>
  <b>B1</b>
  <b>B2</b>
  <b>B3</b>
</a>


a.xsl:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
                version="1.0">

  <xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"
    doctype-public="-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
    doctype-system="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"
    encoding="iso-8859-1" omit-xml-declaration = "yes"/>

    <xsl:template match="/">
      <html>
        <head>
          <meta name="generator" content="a.xsl"/>
          <title>Index</title>
        </head>
        <body>
          <h1>Index</h1>
          <ul>
            <xsl:for-each select="//b">
              <li><xsl:value-of select="."/></li>
              <xsl:call-template name="subdoc"/>
            </xsl:for-each>

      </xsl:document>
    </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>


Do:
    xsltproc a.xsl a.xml > index.html

The meta elements in index.html are terminated correctly, but those in
B{1,2,3}.html, generated using xsl:document, are not.
Comment 1 William M. Brack 2004-04-18 13:37:40 UTC 
Sorry for a rather slow response to this report.

Your xsl:document is creating documents with output filename *.html.  By 
default, that will force the output method to be "html", and that in turn will 
cause the <meta> to be output without a closing tag.  In order to make it 
behave in the way you want, include the attribute method="xml" within the 
xsl:document.
