Actually, the issue is at a slightly different level: The &nbsp; entity 
name is not defined by default in XML, and XSLT is an XML language. If 
you want this available, it has to be defined in the Document Type 
Declaration (DTD) for the specific document -- the stylesheet in this 
case -- either in the DTD file or in the Internal Subset.

(And yes, I do specifically mean DTD. XML Schemas chose not to support 
the declaration of entities, for a number of reasons largely having to 
do with wanting to push folks toward purer XML syntax.)


This is one reason I hesitate to point folks toward "simplified" 
tutorials... all too often, what gets left out turns out to be important 
when the first real-world task comes along.
