Cut the following text:
This word is<emph> emphasized</emph>.
and paste it in again, and you get:
This word is<emph>emphasized</emph>.
In other words, leading (and presumably trailing) white space is dropped
from text nodes when they are copied.
Is this new behavior, or it is just the first time I have noticed it? In
general when writing, I'm careful to always enter
This word is <emph>emphasized</emph>.
so it may just have passed me by. However, there are certain analogous
situations in my documents (involving other elements, not <emph>) where
leading/trailing spaces are necessary.
Is it possible to do anything to prevent the white space being dropped?
Best regards
