&nbsp tag remain in the text

[Anna_h]

I read in XML text as footnotes. Some how &nbsp either not resolved or create missing letter in the text.  Does anyone have similar experience or any suggestions to overcome this? -- I rerun SAS9.1 UNIX

Here is XML text and the output:

XML:

<FOOT8>a. Exact 2-sided confidence interval (Clopper and Pearson) based upon the observed proportion of subjects.</FOOT8>

<FOOT9>b. Baseline &lt;i&gt; C. diff &lt;/i&gt; toxin A- or toxin B-specific neutralizing antibody is defined as the assay result from the blood sample drawn immediately before Vaccination 1 (Day 1, Visit 1).</FOOT9>

Footnotes:

a. Exact 2-sided confidence interval (Clopper and Pearson) based upon the observed proportion of subjects.

b. Baseline C. diff toxin A- or toxin B-specific neutralizing antibody is defined as the&nbs ;assay result from the blood sample drawn immediately before Vaccination 1 (Day 1, Visit 1).

&nbsp or &nbs?

Hi,

Could the footnote be misspelled as "the&nbs ;"? Should it be "the  "?
