I think it is a soft space when you type but a hard space when you drag abd drop or CTRL C-V That _would_ explain it. However the text I drag in contains a soft space. If NetSurf munges that into a hard space, then there is a problem! Deleting the (dragged) space and typing a soft space does cure it.
