Ignoring a certain string of characters

Is there a way in XSL to tell the processor to ignore a string of
characters and pass it to the output verbatim?  The problem that I am
having is that the characters "—" are in the XML meant to produce
an em-dash in the output.  However, in addition to the correct em-dash,
the output has an A-hat(A with ^ above it) preceeding the em-dash.  I
want the style sheet to ignore the characters — and pass them
straight to the ouput so that the browser can handle converting them to
the correct character.
