Duplicate span for Date type content control when converting docx to html

Aspose.Words Product Family

Hi, We are running into an issue with the newer Aspose.Word versions where if we have a Structured Document Tag , content control of type date in docx and converted to html, the see duplicate span tags:

<span style="-aw-sdt-tag:'fldSimpleFieldsForm.OrderDate'; -aw-sdt-title:'Order Date (Simple Fields Form)'" class="fields" title="Order Date (Simple Fields Form)" id="l8k8cdgod2k167cop66v" data-order="1"><span class="PlaceholderText">01/01/1800</span><span>01/01/1800</span></span>

Since there are two spans, the date is seen as duplicate in HTML.

Is there a way around this or possibly a newer approach that we need to take for rendering the date correctly in HTML ?

Thank you for any inputs!

@kml2020 Unfortunatly, I cannot reproduce the problem using the latest 22.12 version of Aspose.Words for Java. Here is how date SDT looks in HTML produced on my side:

<span style="-aw-sdt-tag:'fldSimpleFieldsForm.OrderDate'; -aw-sdt-title:'Order Date (Simple Fields Form)'"><span>01/01/1800</span></span>

Here is code used for testing:

Document doc = new Document("C:\\Temp\\in.docx");
HtmlSaveOptions opt = new HtmlSaveOptions();
opt.setPrettyFormat(true);
doc.save("C:\\Temp\\out.html", opt);

Could you please share a simple code that will allow us to reproduce the problem and attach your output HTML file? We will check the code and the file and provide you more informaiton.
