Sorry, I noticed after I sent it that it wasn't sent to the list - so
did so just before I read this email.
First your XSLT is parsed by an XML parser and the entity ° gets
resolved to the character reference ° which gets resolved to
the character °. So for the XSLT processor it is actually
translate(.,'°','°').
Ahhh! I didn;t realise, ofcourse now the behaviour makes sense.
Third, do you have a problem with °? It should also work.
No. Words fine.
Fourth, the correct way of writing a entity reference to the output
is by escaping the ampersand: &deg; This is now not parsed to
one character °, but to 5 characters &, d, e, g and - guess what -
;. You can't do this replacement with the translate function anymore
but you have to switch to a recursive template [2].
I also added <!ENTITY amp "&">, tried it, but &deg; outputs in
HTML as &deg; not °

Thanks for the typo.
I am just trying to convert "°" to the HTML entity equivalent "°"
After further research my approach is currently to use this xsl:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE xsl:stylesheet [
<!ENTITY nbsp " ">
<!ENTITY deg "°">
]>
---
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xalan="http://xml.apache.org/xalan";
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";>
<xsl:template match="/">
<html>
<body>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="text()" priority="-1">
<xsl:value-of select="translate(.,'°','°')"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
---
But "°" doesn't end up in my HTML, it stays as "°".
However, it works with ie:
<xsl:value-of select="translate(.,'°',' ')"/>
So what's the difference between the 2 entities and how can I resolve it?

I am trying to output a degree symbol from wordML.
It is entered in word as the symbol "Alt+0176" ASCII (Decimal).
Which in WordML translates to:
<w:t>°</w:t>
Now, I was hoping to see:
<w:t>°</w:t>
Just that (but with a semi-colon at the end: °) should be
sufficient. But you say you have the ° already in the WordML. Why
do you want to handle it at all in your XSLT? What's wrong with
<w:t>°</w:t> compared to <w:t>°</w:t>?
