[Exist-open] Replace zero width space

[Hungerburg]

Hi All,
Can anyone help me here. How do I remove '%u200B' from a string in XQuery.
let $input := 'zero​width​spaces'
return (replace($input, "​", " "))
let $input := 'zero%u200Bwidth%u200Bspaces'
return (replace($input, "%u200B", " "))

Seems trivial?

Hi,

I don’t think the %u-notation will work, but you can enter special characters by their codepoints like &#200B;,
so replace($input, '​', ‚') should do the trick.

Best
Peter
