RE:

Hi.
I don?t know if this can be called a bug but is a problem in MSXML.
MSXML creates 3 text nodes, the first with the text befoure the entity,
the second holding the entity and the third with the rest of the text

see http://www.biglist.com/lists/xsl-list/archives/200211/msg00153.html

 <xsl:value-of select="text()"/>

should return (only) the first text node child of the current node.

entities and character references should all have gone by the time XSLT
sees the input (but at least some versions of msxml have had problems in
this area).

>Which one is right?

The  entity &nbsp; is not treated as text?
It should be the same as doing &#160; or just typing that character
directly, and be merged into the surrounding  text nodes. If it isn't
then it's an msxml bug.

you could try <xsl:copy-of select="node()[not(self::DOCUMENTREF)]"/> to
copy all nodes except that element.
