[jdom-interest] Automatic Character Escaping

[Jay Balunas]

I understand what you are saying, but the   is a special instance
where the literal character is just a " ".  I need the   to remain so
that when it is transformed into HTML the   is used.

Thanks for you response,
Jay

No, you don't.* You need to include the actual character in your
string literals, not &nbsp;

* There is a small chance you're writing an XML editor. In this case,
you may actually need to do what you claim, but JDOM isn't going to
help you. You'll need a different, syntax layer API rather than
JDOM's structure layer API.
