utf-8 characters problem

[Jakub Kahovec]

Hi,
when I parse the xml document (with xerces 2.6.2) which has in xml 
declaration specified utf-8 encoding and which contains utf-8 characters 
in character reference form &#xxxx;
the parser replaces these characters  with ascii characters. For some 
characters is ok but for instance InvisibleTimes change for some 
incorrect strange character sentese.
I'd like to know if is possible to prohibit changing characters from 
char. ref. form ? Or does it exist some recommendation how to treat with 
these characters.

Here is a piece of my 'problematic' xml document
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<mathDoc>
<p>Factorise the following quadratic expression:
       <math>
         <mrow>
           <msup>
             <mrow>
           <mi>x</mi>
             </mrow>
             <mrow>
           <mn>2</mn>
             </mrow>
           </msup>
           <mo>&#x002b;</mo> <!-- replaces with character + -->
           <mi>p</mi>
           <mo>&#x2062;</mo>   <!-- here is InvisibleTimes -->
                   <mi>x</mi>
           <mo>&#x002b;</mo>  <!-- replaces with character + -->
           <mi>q</mi>
         </mrow>
       </math>
</mathDoc>
Thanks so much
Jakub
