I was asking about embedding   into a document via XSLT transforms. I
had tried the numeric designation   but it wasn't working, despite
having worked many times in the past (perhaps under MSXML 3.0?).

Here is the solution I used, and it makes a nice tip.  :)

<tip topic="Embedding non-breaking spaces in a document with XSLT"
author="Dave Cantrell">
To embed a non-breaking space in the output of an XSLT transformation, use
the following:

	<xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes">&amp;</xsl:text>nbsp;

This was tested with MSXML 4.0.
</tip>
