Thanks for the quick reply! I'm currently outputting as XML and it should only be the last stage in the chain that outputs as XHTML. The issue seems to be that the input includes declared entities that nothing on the later part of the chain understands. Therefore I want the unicode entity instead so   rather than for example. Should the stylesheet automatically do this? Is there some way I can force a text() catch in the template to convert the characters for me? Oh and since I forgot to mention I'm using Saxon 8 and XSLT 2.0. Gary
