       why not just use spaces?  The purpose of the rtf editor is so that you don't have to use html...

    No matter what I do, the extra spaces disappear, whether I use them in the RTF editor or manually input them in the code. I CANNOT put 3 spaces in a row. They'll disappear when I go to edit the document again.

    By the way, not only do the extra spaces disappear, so does the first space.

    That's three spaces. That was five spaces. Ten.... I'm not sure what the problem is?

    Now I edited it and the spaces are still there.

    Yeah - those were random color codes I used... I planned to eventually address them Innocent 

    When you break down the six issue status codes, they really fall into one of two types:  Open issues (Unresolved, Need More Info, and Partially Resolved) and Closed issues (Fully Resolved, Will Not Fix, and Duplicate Issue).  Therefore, to help identify that one set of issue status levels mean I'm still working on it and which set means I'm not even looking at it anymore, I changed it to just use two color schemes:


    OPEN ISSUES
    (still working on these)
    CLOSED ISSUES
    (no longer working on these)
    Unresolved
    Fully Resolved
    Need More Info
    Will Not Fix
    Partially Resolved
    Duplicate

    Wow it's easy to make nice looking stuff with these nifty new code tags!!

    Maybe it's a firefox thing? A setting of some sort? Or maybe it's just the RTF editor in the documents.

    I just tried it in this thread and I'm still having the same issue. So what's different about me that it's not happening with you?

    It is very possible that it's a firefox versus internet explorer issue.  Many of the settings for this rtf editor have to have hacks for one or the other.  You wouldn't believe how hard it was to get it to do <BR> instead of <p> </p> tags in both browsers!!  I'll look into this and see what I can do to preserve spacing.

    I've spent a lot of time trying to resolve this, and can't seem to find anywhere the code is telling firefox to strip the extra spaces.  I am putting this on the back burner - I won't fix this unless I find something new to make me understand what to do about it.  There are a ton of formatting features built into this little editor - so you should be able to accomplish whatever you need using them, without the extra spaces.
