Hi, When I serialize content to HTML5, I lose some entities. xquery: adds '' in front of some content and outputs html html: should have '', but doesn't. I've tried with 8204 and even the half space 8201. The only special space that seems to work is , but it won't do for what I need right now. Code sample: *let* *$target-table* := *copy* *$copy* := *$base-table* *modify*( *for **$td* *in **$copy*//*tr*/*td*[*position*()= *$column-to-filter-by*] *let* *$new-value* := ('', *for **$node* *in **$td*/*node*() *return **$node*) *return replace* *value* *of* *node* *$td* *with **$new-value* ) *return **$copy* *return * *$target-table* Is there any way to solve this? -- France Baril Architecte documentaire / Documentation architect france.baril@architextus.com
