In the supplied url there is a table about halfway down the page with dates and
titles of sermons.  Each row is numbered and indented.  The indents are done
using non-breaking spaces.  The final &nbsp is followed immediately by the
number and so Firefox doesn't recognize it as the non-breaking space special
character.  So far I've found that only Internet Explorer will display this
correctly.  I checked with Firefox, Mozilla, and Safari and all of them do it wrong.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Visit the page supplied.

Actual Results:  
The line "&nbsp" was displayed on the page when viewed.

Expected Results:  
Recognized &nbsp as the non-breaking space special character.
