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?
Hi France,
In the database, all Unicode characters will be stored in their standard (decoded) representation. As a result, it is not possible to preserve entities from an original document. For XML serialization via WebDAV, we have one special rule for converting non-breaking spaces (xA0) to entities. Which other Unicode characters would you like to have converted to entities?
Cheers, Christian

I use   - non-breakable space a lot. It's used widely in French.
I wanted:
‌ - ‌ ‍ - ‍
I've had clients who have asked for the thin space in the past  ... I nicely told them 'no'.
I've resolved my joiner issue with an alternate solution for now. But if you are opening up the can of worms, and it's not much more work, why not implement all the space and joiner entities   to ‍?
Regards,
France

Hi France,

Good idea. I have added even some more characters (see [1]):
8192 – 8207 8232 – 8239 8287 – 8303
A new snapshot (close to the final version 8.6) is online [2]; I’be grateful for some testing feedback!

I haven't run many tests yet, but importing the file and exporting the files again from the gui only retains 
 Also, when the entity is in decimal (&8332;), it gets transformed to hex (not a big deal in my book). Other entities are 'applied', but not retained.
I'm on BaseX 8.6 beta 4c3daeb

Entities will only be serialized when using WebDAV. Did you try that as well?

Import works, playing with webdav is giving good results so far. I still want to see how it outputs html through file:write with html5 serialization and if I can retain the entites in my pdfs. That's my next step.

In XQuery, you can specify entities via output parameters; see the attached example.
