Hi all,

I'm using XT (Version 19990514) with Sun's Project X (Technology Release
1) to output HTML.  How can I print a literal "&nbsp;" to the output. 
I've noticed that XT expands character refences in the SCRIPT element's
contents.  Given any well-formed source tree:

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/XSL/Transform/1.0";
                xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40";
                result-ns="">
  <xsl:template match="/">
    <HTML>
      <HEAD>
        <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JAVASCRIPT">
          x = "this &amp; that";
          &amp;nbsp;
        </SCRIPT>
      </HEAD>
      <BODY>
        this &amp; that
        &amp;nbsp;
      </BODY>
    </HTML>
  </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

produces:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JAVASCRIPT">
          x = "this & that";
          &nbsp;
        </SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
          this &amp; that
          &amp;nbsp;
        </BODY>
</HTML>

Is there some way to do the same for the BODY element or other HTML
elements?  Thanks!

-Ray
