(I'm taking your word > for it that it's the dash :-) Be careful, Yue: 0150 is an en-dash or en-rule (a short dash used between ranged of numbers, sometimes typed like 36--45). What most people call "the dash" --- used between phrases like this --- is an em-dash or em-rule and is code point 0151, not 0150. Better still, use the typographic characters if your rendering system supports them: <!ENTITY ndash "–"> <!-- EN DASH --> <!ENTITY mdash "—"> <!-- EM DASH --> ///Peter XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
