Dear developers, our Perl-community is developing a fast board written in Perl. For highlighting issues we're using source-highlight.
But we got some compatibility problems with source-highlight and a static HTML table based design. We're embedding the highlighted code directly into the tables. When some lines are very long, the page becomes as long as the longest code line is. We were trying to leave the <pre><tt> Tag at the beginning and at the end and for newlines <br /> but then tabs won't be visibile any more cause of collapsing the white spaces by the browser. The CSS Option white-space:pre-wrap; solves this problem at the browser-side. But it's an CSS2.1 feature an is only implemented in the Opera 8.x+ browser. I wasted very much time to find a fast and performant way to solve this with manipulating the HTML-output without many success. I though maybe it's the best way to expand source-highlight with an new option that makes using and <br /> instead of <pre><tt>. In conclusion... Is a feature planned like this? Is it possible that I try to implement it? I hav'nt worked on a opensource project yet. With kind regards Alexander Koeppe _______________________________________________ Savannah-help-public mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/savannah-hackers
