Kevin Menard commented on TAPESTRY-2028:
----------------------------------------
Yeap. I ran into problems. Nothing catastrophic, but a lot of our pages look
crappy now.
We have something like the following in our templates:
<strong>Order Placed:</strong> <t:outputdate value="order.date" format="MMMM d,
y"/>
OutputDate is a component we have for rendering dates. It doesn't add
whitespace itself because it may not always be appropriate. For example, if
used as a value in a table cell. So, the whitespace in the template is
important. Now, that space after the ending strong tag is eaten up, so rather
than see:
Order Placed: January 22, 2008
we get:
Order Placed:January 22, 2008
Incidentally, I forgot about this issue and spent time scrubbing the templates
trying to figure out what was going on. Shame on me, I guess, but I'm likely
not to be the only one.
Perhaps preserving one space between tags would help.

> Project: Tapestry
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: tapestry-core
> Affects Versions: 5.0.7
> Reporter: Howard M. Lewis Ship
> Assignee: Howard M. Lewis Ship
> Fix For: 5.0.8
>
>
> Tapestry (4 and 5) has traditionally honored all the white space in a
> template. This is for a few specific cases, such as text inside a <pre>
> element (who uses those?).
> This results in output documents that, due to the extra whitespace that often
> surrounds Tapestry components, contain large amounts of whitespace.
> In most cases, interior white space (whitespace between text characters) can
> be reduced to a single space, and white space just after a tag or just before
> a tag can be eliminated entirely.
> The Tapestry template parser should honor the xml:space attribute and use it
> to determine what template whitespace is relevant, and what whitespace may be
> minimized or eliminated.
