Now to my question, although basic compared to the questions generally
asked on this list, is there any way to prevent these entities from
producing errors?  We've come to a point with one of our products that
allows users to create their own websites and this type of
functionality is needed because the rich text editor of choice loves
to throw "&nbsp;" everywhere (tiny mce).  Any ideas?

All you have to do is teach the processor about the entity.


Or alternatives
to the rich text editor that would allow non-techy users to edit the
look and feel of their content on their sites?

This is what I give my students:


<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE xsl:stylesheet [
<!ENTITY nbsp "&#160;"> <!--known for HTML output, not in XML-->
]>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
                version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="html"/><!--use hardwired browser entities-->
<xsl:template match="/">
 ...
 <xsl:text>Module:&nbsp;</xsl:text>
 ...
</xsl:template>

I hope this helps.
