I'd like to use non breaking spaces in my JSF page. I know, in plain HTML I could use for this and this works fine. However, when I put those in a Facelets page, then it errors as follows:
Error Parsing /page.xhtml: Error Traced[line: 42] The entity "nbsp" was referenced, but not declared.
How is this caused and how can I solve it?

Facelets is a XML based view technology. XML has only five predefined entities. The is not among them. It works only when used in plain HTML or in legacy JSP (note: it doesn't work in JSPX as that's also XML based!).
To fix this, you either need to declare the entity yourself in the doctype of the very XHTML file containing the entity,
<!DOCTYPE html [
<!ENTITY nbsp " ">
]>
or, better, use the (hexa)decimal notation instead:

In an average IDE it should be trivial to perform a "find and replace in all files" and replace every occurrence of by  .

Try using &#160;. for more information on entities you can refer following url HTML ISO-8859-1 Reference
