Thank you, I'm not surprised you knew the answer. So, one link is okay but two are not? We're
using paragraph metadata where we can, but in most cases it isn't possible.
We had to abandon the browser widget because we need field properties that are not supported
there. It's a challenge, because the source files are complex. If LC can do the span
substitutions reliably there won't be an issue.

The htmltext of a field is based on HTML3 or before.
In HTML 3/4 a span can not contain two links, in HTML5 yes.
[So a browser widget does what you explicitly wish to have.]
Or if you set the metadata of the <p>-tag instead
(= set the metadata of line x of fld 1 to "metadata1").

If I set the htmlText of a field to HTML that contains a span,
and if that span also contains an anchor or href link,
LC separates the span into multiple ones.
For example, a field's htmlText set to this:
<p> <span metadata="metadata1">This is some text that contains the metadata.<a
href="#fn">linkOne</a> And here is some more text. <a
href="#en"><i>linkTwo</i></a></span></p>
becomes this when retrieved:
<p> <span metadata="metadata1">This is some text that contains the metadata.<a
href="#fn">linkOne</a></span><span metadata="metadata1"> And here is some more
text. <a
href="#en"><i>linkTwo</i></a></span></p>
How come it does that? Do links interfere with spans?
