Please see attached xsl. I opened this in SS and used indent XML tags feature. I observed two things
1. was converted to which makes it unreadable.
2. p tag was wrapped on first line. Instead of two line inside template I get just one long line. The XSL I am using on project, has about 50 lines, which gets wrapped.

If I remove the entity reference, formatting looks great.

Is there way I can control this.

N.B. I had to define entity in inline dtd as I was getting undefined entity error.

format_entity.xsl

We chose to always output the equivalent character entity to avoid placing
an entity that could not be defined in the XSL/XML file, making it invalid;
we have now changed the algorithm so that the nbsp entity will be generated
if it can be found in the DTD.

The content of xsl:template is placed on a long line because it has
non-whitespace characters between the child tags (the nbsp entity); we have
now placed extra logic in the indenter to interpret the newline before the
"p" tag as a hint that the user accepts indentation from that point on.

These fixes will be available in the next update.

Thanks for the report,
Alberto

Thanks a lot for taking actions so quick. The SS tech support is awesome.
