I see what you mean. I'm opening the output in a plain text editor
(Notepad). The template does seem to be replacing the indexterm
character spaces with ampersands.

Sorry about that!  I mistakenly thought that the template wasn't
working, because many of my intexterm elements are nested (which I
didn't think was important to mention :-(). The template removes the
nesting and displays all of the indexterms in a single indexterm
element.


For example:

Input

<indexterm>domains<indexterm>and  components</indexterm></indexterm>

Output

<indexterm>
   old[domainsand components]
   new[domainsand&amp;components]
 </indexterm>


What would I have to do to retain the nested indexterm elements?

Thanks,
Mark
