Re: [WSG] Comment mark
Ultimately IE is "right" in that you can never tell a client their site
doesn't work in IE but it fits the written technical standards. A client
will always prefer a non web standard site that works in IE to one that
is technically correct but errors out in the worlds most popular browser.

True, although I see it as one of those times that it's "right" in the
strict technical sense rather than a practical sense :) In general
usage I think it's reasonable to expect the closing delimiter.
cheers,

Re: [WSG] preserve whitespace
Hi You'd have to define a "blank" is it a tab -> \t, a newline -> \n, a carriage return \r You can use pre or you can use "white-space : pre;" to PREserve the whitespace in the string appearing in the cell. is an html entity for the non breaking space character. You should use it when you want just that - a non breaking space to stop a line from wrapping (or user white-space : nowrap) - rather than to define any sort of fixed width padding or margin, as nbsp is a wide as a piece of string is long.

Re: [WSG] preserve whitespace
The "standard" way is to use paddings (if your HTML page really contains table data) or not to use tables for layout purpose at all. - Konstantin Efimov http://webstandards.org.ru - Original Message - From: Simon Cockayne To: wsg@webstandardsgroup.org Sent: Tuesday, December 11, 2007 8:09 PM Subject: [WSG] preserve whitespace Hi, I have an HTML page and I want to (well my client wants me to) preserve leading blanks in the value of a table data cell.

Re: [WSG] preserve whitespace
Hi It is non-schematic way and usually you can solve this problem with css padding property. If you don't -- use to keep whitespace.
