(1) My requirement is to convert a DECIMAL INPUT to hexadecimal notation with fixed 8 digits
(2) Convert/Map HEXADECIMAL RESULT to character set by picking 2 HEXADECIMAL characters at a time and append the respective character codes. Please refer to below link for character encoding
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/office/vba/language/reference/user-interface-help/character-set-0127
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/office/vba/language/reference/user-interface-help/character-set-128255
(3) The final character encoding is showcased as OUTPUT
(4) Can XSLT handle all the special encoding character sets?
DECIMAL INPUT
<decimal>
<input>2<input>
<input>100<input>
<input>819<input>
<input>60<input>
</decimal>
HEXADECIMAL RESULT
<input>
<hex>00000002</hex>
<hex>00000064</hex>
<hex>00000333</hex>
<hex>0000003C</hex>
</input>
OUTPUT - CHARACTER ENCODING
<output>
<charset> </charset>
<charset> d</charset>
<charset> 3</charset>
<charset> <</charset>
</output>
Some of these codes are outside the ASCII range, but if by ASCII you mean Unicode, you could try
<xsl:value-of select="concat('&#x', hex, ';')"
disable-output-escaping="yes"/>
