Browsers ignore \n \r and \t. Look at the resultant html source code in your browser. Something is converting them BEFORE sending the html code to the client browser. Arno Kuhl wrote:
I've just noticed that "\r\n" and "\t" characters create a space when rendered in the browser (tested in IE and Firefox). I'd always thought the browser would ignore these characters. This wouldn't normally be a problem but the wysiwyg html editor in the cms I'm using tries to be friendly by formatting the html code, so something like <span style=\"COLOR: #af0e14\">get</span><span style=\"COLOR: #333333\">online</span> becomes \r\n\t\t<span style=\"COLOR: #af0e14\">get</span>\r\n\t\t<span style=\"COLOR: #333333\">online</span> and instead of being displayed as getonline it's displayed as get online. Is there a simple way to sort this out or do I need to create a function to strip these characters before display, checking first that they don't occur within a <pre> tag in which case I mustn't strip them.
