losing spaces when using zero width space?

[Jon Allen <Jo...@sas.com>]

Hello.
A while back you good folk taught me to use zero width spaces to allow my text to wrap as I needed it to.
Now I have discovered that spaces in my text are not showing up in the output.
Example: "S<zws>A<zws>M<zws>P<zws>L<zws>E<zws> <zws>T<zws>E<zws>X<zws>T"
where <zws> is &#x200b; 
(I know this is hard to read - sorry)
comes out as "SAMPLETEXT"
instead of "SAMPLE TEXT".
I tried setting white-space-collapse property to false, but that didn't help.
Searched the archives to no avail.
Thanks for any help.
Jon

I guess the space is lost during XSLT. Run the transformation standalone
and examine the FO file in order to check this.
