The problem is probably with your web server configuration. See the section "Odd characters in HTML output" here:
http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/SpecialChars.htmlIf you're using Apache, you can either edit httpd.conf to change the config for AddDefaultCharSet or try add the following line to a file named .htaccess (create it if necessary) place from which you serve up your content (e.g. ~username/public_html):
AddDefaultCharSet UTF-8

docbook-apps@lists.oasis-open.org Subject: [docbook-apps] nbsp symbols in XHTML output
I am writing documentation using object oriented tags for lists of classes and methods. In the XHTML output in Internet Explorer, all of the areas where there are or in the XSLT appear as the following symbol, . This does not happen in Firefox. Is this a common problem? Is there an easy solution to remove the symbols? I am using DocBook 5.0, Saxon, XEP. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
