[basex-talk] preventing tranforming empty element with begin- and endtag to self-closing-tag

Hi Christian,

Basex seems to transform 'begin-/endtagged' element with empty content to a single self-closing-tagged element:

<div></div>

is transformed to:

</div>

This gives problems in my client application. Both in Chrome, Edge and Firefox transforms Javascript's "insertAdjacentHTML":

<div> <div/> <div>tekst</div> <div>tekst</div> </div>

to:

<div> <div> <div>tekst</div> <div>tekst</div> </div> </div>

This is not what is intended.

I guess for void-elements this transformation is ok but result in problems like this in case of container-elements.

Is it possible in Basex to suppress this transformation?

mvgr.
