Ha - you'd hate my code then. I like a lot of spaces, makes it easier for me to keep the blocks seperated.

Everything worked fine for me. On balance I'm inclined to stick to my spaces-before style, not least because I've been coding that way for well over 20 years and it's not that easy to change, even if I felt well-disposed. (Which I don't :) ) Apologies to Bob & anyone else who finds this style irksome. As you might imagine, I find the opposite style cluttered and hard to read. Likewise I imagine there are many who find my two-spaces indent style cluttered while I find even four and certainly any more to be grotesquely elongated.
