RE: [xsl] How do i put whitespace character in xsl file

["Michael Kay" <mike@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The term "whitespace" in XML generally means one of the four characters x9,
xA, xD, and x20. The term doesn't include other invisible characters such as
non-breaking-space (xA0) or zero-width-space. 

To include a non-breaking-space in your stylesheet (and therefore in the
output) use   You can use   if you like, but it's not a predefined
entity in XML, so you have to declare it in your DTD.
