You could use non-breaking space characters natively, or as character references: <Location> <Company_name>My  Company</Company_name> </Location> or you could use the entity in your generated XML, as long as you declared it: <!DOCTYPE Location [ <!ENTITY nbsp ' '> ]> <Location> <Company_name>My Company</Company_name> </Location> Whichever way you do it, the XSLT processor will see non-breaking spaces. When you do: <INPUT type="text" value="{/Location/Company_name}"/> the XSLT processor will create a value attribute including the non-breaking space characters. When it serializes this value attribute as HTML, it will (probably) substitute the non-breaking space characters with the HTML entity , and you'll get: <INPUT type="text" value="My Company" /> Cheers, Jeni --- Jeni Tennison http://www.jenitennison.com/ XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
