RE: global find and replace certain "special" characte

The Source XML as generated by Infopath:
Encoding: UTF-8
Character in Hex: c2

Output XML generated after XSL Transform:
Encoding: UTF-8
Character in Hex: a0

I essentially want to "eliminate" or be able to "replace" these characters
globally either from the source XML before applying my other transforms &
templates or after the transforms have been applied.

Kindly advise.

Thanks,

Abhishek

The first thing is to discover whether the XML is actually incorrect, or
whether it is simply being displayed incorrectly. To help you answer that
question, we need to know (a) what encoding is specified in the XML
declaration (assuming there is one), and (b) what the actual bytes (octets)
in the file are. You can find this out using a hex editor.
