Don't know where you got that idea supposing httpd modifies html pages.
HTTPD does not touch html pages, it's not its function, nor the function
or any other web server, httpd sends them to the client when requested and
the client interprets them.
It is at least surprising you blame the Apache Web Server over the client
in something like this.
and he's using an HTML5 tag <dataset> which is browser sensitive (e.g
Safari won't touch it...)

I would be inclined to think (but you didn't showed the source of the file
you see with the browser when you access it in the server), since your
server is in Linux and you are handling the file and testing locally in a
windows, that it is a carriage return thing rather than any other. Try
dos2unix the file in the server or similar, remember windows and Linux do
not use the same characters for newline/carriage returns.

Hello,
Â
my laptop at the office is windows 7 with internet explorer 10.
Â
our apache server is version 2.2.3 running on a Linux system.
Â
I have a small HTML test file with a <datalist> tag that works fine when
runlocally through the browser.
Â
However when I send the file up to the apache server and then attempt to
display the web page with the <datalist> tag it does not display
correctly. I just see an input box with the contents of the datalist tag
choices displayed beside it. I have checked the apache error log and there
was no entry of any klind for my web page. Why does the apache web server
somehow manage to mess up my simple little web page which is as follows :
Â
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Datalist</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<H1>Datalist</H1>
<input type="text" name="product" list="productName"/>
<datalist id="productName">
   <option value="Pen">Pen</option>
   <option value="Stapler">Stapler</option>
   <option value="Pencil">Pencil</option>
   <option value="Eraser">Eraser</option>
   <option value="Paper">Paper</option>
</datalist>
</BODY>
</HTML>
