Forum :: Lounge :: Glitch (eoserv.net)

I have noticed over the past month that when someone writes a paragraph atleast four lines long that it will not provide a space in certain places that it was placed. It just makes it harder to read and if you try to edit it, it will just remove the spaces from another part of the paragraph. I am not sure if anyone else noticed this, but it is really annoying when posting a advertising topic or just a long reply. (This is just to make the topic longer so it might happen and you readers can see it.) I was not sure if this was suppose to go in eoserv since eoserv is the server emulator, but this is the website I am talking about.

There has been posts like this before yes it is a issue but apparently sausage is being a Lazy *beep* and wont solve xD

This is a bug that usually occurs after editing a post. I am 99% sure we have let Sausage know which would mean you can be 100% sure he doesn't care.

This happened to me when I was writing out my ad rather annoying, maybe it could be only a browser based issue? I'm using Mozilla Firefox.

Well let's try and fix it, but I have no idea where it even happens.

I have noticed over the past month that when someone writes a paragraph at least four lines long that it will not provide a space in certain places that it was placed. It just makes it editing and if you try to edit it, it will just remove the spaces from another part of the paragraph. I am not sure if anyone else noticed this, but it is really annoying when posting a advertising topic or just a long reply. (This is just to make the topic longer so it might happen and you readers can see it.) I was not sure if this was suppose to go in eoserv since words words, but this is the website I am talking about.

Well, since I can't seem to reproduce it, I'm going to blame it on your web browser. Compare the HTML you managed to generate in the OP compared to the HTML in my post:

The HTML output from the RTE looks horrendous, and the space trimming possibly happens before it even gets back to the server.

Odd, as far as I can see, there are no clumped words in that post. Perhaps it is the browsers we use and the forums weren't made to support them all correctly. I'm not so great at figuring that sort of stuff out myself though.

I made a small change to the way edit pages work that will probably fix it, since it looks like it's caused by the random line-breaks in the middle of your paragraphs. The HTML will still be ugly and inconsistent in whatever browser you're using, but spaces should be preserved.

Thanks for noticing and thanks for the fix. I really appreciate you taking time out of your life to fix such a small issue.
