New submission from Mitar <mmi...@gmail.com>:
Inside text elements both in HTML and SVG white-space is significant and introduces differences in how things are rendered. By default in general all white-space is collapsed into one space and then this is rendered, adding additional text content. I observed this while working with SVG which can have content like: <text><tspan>foo</tspan><tspan>bar</tspan></text> After pretty-printing it with minidom, and white-space collapsing, the following is what is input to SVG rendering: <text> <tspan>foo</tspan> <tspan>bar</tspan> </text> And space between "foo" and "bar" is now visible and while before it was one word to the user, now it is shown as two. Related issue: https://github.com/mozman/svgwrite/issues/58 I think pretty-printing not add whitespace inside text elements. ---------- components: XML messages: 346846 nosy: mitar priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Minidom should not pretty-print inside text elements versions: Python 3.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37442> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
