This is a VERY old bug. I reported it long ago and filed a ticket in Trac for it. Unfortunately, it seems the issue is the way that different browsers handle the leading (*and* trailing) newlines in a DIV. When the tiddler data is read from the storeArea DIVs, some browsers eat the leading/trailing newlines, others do not. One fix that I had proposed was to automatically pad the tiddler content with a leading/ trailing *space* character when writing the storeArea (i.e., file save), and strip those spaces out when the storeArea is re-read during document startup. However, this solution was rejected by the folks at Osmosoft (for reasons I cannot recall). I *do* recall having a lengthy conference call in which the open ticket was reviewed and subsequently closed as "won't fix" after a great deal of heated and frustrating discussion. Of course, the quick *manual* workaround is to simply put a leading space character on the initial blank line of the tiddler (e.g, "space- newline" instead of just newline). Note that this bug also exists when a tiddler *ends* with a newline, and is particularly ugly when the tiddler content ends with line mode syntax that expect a trailing newline. For example, if a tiddler ends with: /*** some wiki-formatted content here ***/ The trailing newline following the closing "***/" is stripped off, and the result is that a spurious 3rd level bullet item is rendered, with the "/" displayed as the bullet item text, rather closing the /*** ... ***/ block. The workaround for this is similar to the workaround above, except that you need to add a *trailing* space to the content to prevent the final newlines from being 'eaten'. Thus: /*** wiki-formatted content ***/(newline)(space) -e -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
