xsl entity
By the way...

Proper resolution of character entities may be what you are thinking of that complicates things and cause the stylesheet to fail... e.g. &nbsp; needs to be mapped using an entity declaration such as:

<!DOCTYPE xsl:stylesheet [<!ENTITY nbsp "&#160;">]>

This does tend to hang a lot of people up, especially those people used to using &nbsp; in their HTML pages . If not properly declared (and mapped, although if its mapped to the wrong character it wont break anything during the transformation... it just wont output what you want it to output....

Cheers!
