It seems to me that auto formatting for HTML misbehaves by inserting a newline before an anchor tag. Given the following code:
testingtestingtestingtestingtestingtestingtestingtestingtestingtestingtestingtestingtestingtesting<a href="foo">foo</a>Running “Source > Format” will insert a newline before the opening anchor tag. The result is that the output, when viewed in a web browser, is different after the formatting than it is before formatting, in that there is a space before the word “foo.”
Is there any way to disable this behavior? I find it really annoying because we often have links in our pages that look like this: [foo]. If the formatter decides to put a newline before the anchor tag, it ends up like this: [ foo]
Thanks,
JonathanJonathan,
I can see why your facing an issue here but unfortunately this behavior cannot be disabled. The only workaround is to avoid using the formatter. Sorry about that.That’s too bad. Maybe I’ll make a jsp tag for a link surrounded by square brackets. Or figure out how to submit a bug. Or both. 🙂 Anyway, thanks for the response.
