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,
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

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?
