When editing a page in composer, there are three different actions which cause
anomalous spaces to be added to the html source code. When you open a saved
file, a space is added to the beginning of each line in the page (source code
only, space does not show up when browsing page). When you copy and paste
multiple lines of text, a space is added to the beginning of each line of the
pasted text except for the first line (source code only, does not show up when
browsing page). The third action that can cause an anomalous space only happens
if all of the following conditions are met. If you are formatting a portion of
a line of text that does not include the end of the line. If you end the
formatting within a series of characters and not at a blank space. If the tag
for ending the formatting (for instance, </u>) occurs at the end of a line in
the html source code, with the text immediately after the format change wrapping
to the next line. This will cause a apace to be added at that point (this will
not show up until you browse the page, or save/close/reopen the page in composer).
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open a new composer page
2.Type in 012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890
3.Press Cntrl a to highlight the line, and then Cntrl c to copy
4.Pressing right arrow key should remove highlighting and put cursor at end of line
5.Hit enter and then Cnrtl v to paste
6.Hit enter and then Cntrl v to paste
7.Press Cntrl a to highlight all three lines, and then cntrl c to copy
8.Press right arrow key to remove highlight, cursor should be at end of third line
9.Hit enter and then cntrl v to paste
10.With mouse, highlight a portion of the first line, end of highlighting needs
to be between the final 3 and final 0 on the line.
11.Click on color picker, and change text color to a different color
12.Save the page and close composer
13.Open composer, select file->open file
14.Select the file you had saved
Actual Results: In normal view, on the line of text where the color was
changed, there will be a space where the color switches back to default color
(you will also see the added space if you browse the page). If you change to
html source view, you will see that a apace has been added to the beginning of
each line (caused by opening a saved file). You will also see that the final
two lines have an additional space at the beginning of the line (caused by the
copy and paste, first line of pasted text does not have the extra space). Also
note that the first line of text ends with </font>, with the numbers following
the color change wrapped to the next line in the html source code (which is what
caused the space to be added at the point the color changed).
Expected Results: There should be no space added by the color change. There
should be no spaces added to the html source code for opening a saved file or
for copying/pasting multiple lines of text.
The space added by copying and pasting text only occurs when copying/pasting
within composer (either same window or from copying from one composer window to
another). If you copy text from another source (including navigator window) and
then paste into composer, the extra space is not added. Other format changes
besides color (ie bold, italic, underline) will also cause the additional space
to be added, its just easiest to reproduce with a color change, since the tags
for color take up more space in the html source code.

Bug #61228 seemed to deal with this problem, it was showing as verified/fixed on
0514 trunk (05/14/01). I initially added a comment to that bug indicating that
the bug was showing up in the 20010924 build. Received a reply telling me to
file as a new bug under the dom to text conversion component. Had meant to
reference that bug number in my report, looks like I missed it.
Giving bug to peterv since he is our new serializer dude ;-)

Should be marked as "Duplicate" of bug#85184 as it seems to be fixed with the
same patch as that of 85184.

Cause of the bug is same as the one for 85184. Problem occurs when we add a new
line character to wrap the lines. Marking as "Duplicate" of 85184.
