Feb 22, 2013 at 23:12 comment added Lorem Ipsum @Oded I don't mind the flooding; in fact, I'm happy the devs are closing/fixing bugs. However, without a comment/answer, I don't know if you mean "This is so old that changes since then have rendered it invalid" or "This is so lame that I don't care to respond" or "This is how it will be and I'm not going to fix it"
Feb 22, 2013 at 14:50 comment added Oded StaffMod @LoremIpsum - Sorry, trying to close old old old bugs. Didn't mean to flood the front page.
Feb 22, 2013 at 14:49 comment added Lorem Ipsum @Oded Can you at least post an explanation as to why it is status by design or declined instead of simply flooding the front page with your retagging?

Mar 22, 2012 at 6:52 comment added Arjan No, @Lri, they are not. (See the HTML page source for this comment.)
Mar 22, 2012 at 6:21 comment added Lri @Arjan But aren't newlines removed before the CSS anyway?
Mar 21, 2012 at 17:15 comment added Arjan I guess not, @Lri, as pre-wrap also enables newlines? Those don't get any love in comments.

Dec 14, 2011 at 16:09 comment added Chris Down This is still an issue, and now unicode nbsp doesn't work either (at least as far as I can test).
Jul 7, 2011 at 2:49 comment added Lri Couldn't code {white-space:pre-wrap} be added to the SE default stylesheets?

Nov 30, 2009 at 0:05 comment added Abel Firefox is correct in copying, but not in selecting. Unfortunately, the W3 and other standards bodies say little if anything about how selections are supposed to look (or what Ctrl-C should copy consecutively), that's totally up to the UI.
Nov 21, 2009 at 23:21 comment added perbert @Abel: you are right, Chrome doesn't like it either. It must be because generally in HTML 1+ space becomes 1 space. I think that firefox's (pronounce it out loud, I dare you) is the correct behavior in this case.
Nov 18, 2009 at 13:37 comment added Abel I used Opera (doesn't work). Now tested with IE (doesn't work) and FF (works). Looking at the code (<code>with </code><code> multiple </code><code> </code><code> spaces</code>) there are spaces (but most space is created by CSS), but when selecting they aren't "blue" in any browser, and only FF copies them. Interesting little browser quirks.
Nov 17, 2009 at 23:37 comment added perbert @Abel: What is the problem? On FF, If I select the text and paste it I get the spaces on the pasted text.
Nov 17, 2009 at 22:05 comment added Abel @voyλger nice alternative workaround (but try to select and copy it).
