    However as shown in a parallel thread today it is not 
    always safe to define nbsp in the stylesheet: some xml 
    parsers default to validating mode when they sniff a 
    DOCTYPE and so try to validate the stylesheet, which is 
    almost always not valid.
    
    There really is no point in defining nbsp as it's just as 
    easy to type #160 and a whole lot simpler in terms of 
    avoiding complications in the processing pipeline.

I'd agree where you want to use nbsp in the stylesheet,
except that processing html via tidy, I often
see those nbsp's in droves, which makes it necessary to define
the entity. Hard graft when its dozens of input files to add it there?
<grin>No, I don't want the sed script thank you very much Mr C </grin>
