How come I get these character references in the HTML file I am
generating then? Is there something I forgot to specify during
translation or something I forgot in the XSL file?

Thanks for your help
Neil.

& q u o t e ; and & a m p ; (spaces added) are built into xml (along
with three others) by its specification and are understood by all xml
parsers. Things like & # 8 2 2 2 ; (which are called "character
references") are also defined by the xml specification.  HTML also
understands them.  So there is nothing special to do.  HTML-specific
entities like & n b s p ; are specific to html and xhtml.
