Hi,

thanks for fixing my previous problems, however I'm having a new 
problem: the Aelfred2 parser removes the whitespace in my element content.

For instance, if I parse the following document:
    <root>&lt;head&gt; &amp; &lt;body&gt;</root>
the spaces before and after the "&amp;" are lost!!

Here is some code that illustrates the problem:

    public void testWhitespace() throws Exception {
        String xml = "<root>&lt;head&gt; &amp; &lt;body&gt;</root>";
        InputStream in = new ByteArrayInputStream(xml.getBytes());
       
        SAXParserFactory factory = new JAXPFactory();
        factory.newSAXParser().parse(in, new DefaultHandler2() {
            public void characters(char[] ch, int start, int end) {
                System.out.print(new String(ch, start, end));
            }
        });
    }

This is the output I'm getting:
<head>&<body>

but I was expecting this output:
<head> & <body>


regards,
Maarten
