      shown on page when HTML is stripped

    Hi,

    I have the following XSLT running on an Umbraco V4 page which is supposed to show a 200 word preview from a node, I have set it to strip out any HTML but it appears that if it is trying to show something that has two spaces next to each other then one of them shows as  

    I have even tried using replace to replace the   with nothing but that does not seem to work. Can anyone tell me why this is happening or what I can do to stop it?

    This is a cut down version of my XSLT:

    <xsl:template name="displayResults">      

     <xsl:variable name="jobdescription" select="umbraco.library:StripHtml(data [@alias='jobdescription'])" />
        <xsl:variable name="jobdescriptionstripped" select="umbraco.library:TruncateString($jobdescription,200,'')" />   

       
      <p><xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:Replace($jobdescriptionstripped, '&nbsp;', '')"/></p>
          
        

    </xsl:template>

    Hi trfletch,

    You should try disabling the output-escaping:

    <p><xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:Replace($jobdescriptionstripped, ' ', '')" disable-output-escaping="yes" /></p>

    Thanks Chriztian,

    Exactly what I needed, I have used disable output escaping before, not sure why I didn't think to use it here. Thanks again.
