Ouch, there are lot of strings where tag content ends or begins with space and any of them can be problematic for translation. That's because I wrote I'd not suggest to fix them now because it would create translation overhead for 3.0. I mean, that not having spaces at beginning or end of tag content should be a policy for writers. Some examples: - Opens the <emph>Macro </emph>dialog - click the arrow next to the <emph>Insert Controls </emph>icon - Use the tools on the <emph>Toolbox </emph>of the (about 30) - jumps back to the<emph> While </emph>statement - <emph>Label:</emph> Target line according to<emph> GoTo </emph>or <emph>GoSub</emph> structure. (about 20) - <item type=\"input\">=DDB(75000;1;60;12;2) </item>= 1,721.81 currency units (etc...) Of course I cannot remember at moment all possible 'dangerous' tags. :) These are just examples. In examples above: 'Something dialog', 'something icon' are often translated as 'dialog Something', 'icon Something' and then translator has to remove space not to leave it in end of sentence or before comma.
