Yes, the browser is going to do with it what it will, and that will likely change based on various settings you have in your environment (language, etc). But when that string leaves MarkLogic, it will be the UTF-8 codepoint character (not the entity, as XQuery converts that to the character).

The non-breaking space seems to be converted to a regular space when it's copied. In Firefox, I'm not seeing the entity at all. Thanks. -jb From: Florent Georges <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Reply-To: Florent Georges <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>>, MarkLogic Developer Discussion <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Date: Thursday, May 22, 2014 at 9:12 AM To: MarkLogic General ML <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Subject: [MarkLogic Dev General] Non-breaking space in QConsole Hi, When evaluating the following query in QConsole: 'foo bar' (that is, a simple string containing a non-breaking space), the result displayed in the result pane is 'foo bar', containing a regular space instead (both in Auto and Raw modes). Which is not only not correct, but might lead to surprises as well. I spent quite some time trying to "debug" a query, copying a string value from the result pane and using it in a predicate (just to be sure I got the *exact same value*), and the query kept failing. Because the string actually contained some non-breaking space, and using a regular space did not then match in the predicate. Is it a known bug?
