why "of course" ??


The default behaviour of xslt is to copy character data
so if it isn't being copied you presumably have a template that is
explictly not copying it.

Again do you really have

<!DOCTYPE holdspace [<!ENTITY nbsp "& n b s p ;">]>

or has your mailer changed & # 1 6 0 ; to nbsp.
As shown your entity file is defining nbsp to be nbsp.

Dan,

I have tried the following combinations:

xml file:

<!DOCTYPE holdspace[<!ENTITY nbsp "&nbsp ;">]> <--no spaces &nbsp;
when I view this xml file I see <OBJECT>&nbsp;</OBJECT>

my transform I have tried with both declaring this holdspace and not. The resulting output from my transform removes the &nbsp; between my OBJECT tags. I want to keep the &nbsp; in my output between my OBJECT tag so when I open this output file I see <OBJECT>&nbsp;</OBJECT>

How do I accomplish this in my stylesheet?

Sincerely,

Scott
