Right, but I don't want it to work on a browser.  I want it to be parseable
again as XML.

As for what you're saying as far as Saxon goes... I would assume that that
would have the same problems that I'm complaining about (whether or not I
want it to behave as the spec recommends :-).  Unless of course, Saxon would
support the iso-8859-1 (or whatever) spec that I have read seems to preserve
the &nbsp's as I want them preserved.

Thanks for your response.  I'll be looking into saxon.
