Quotes - Why does it autmoatically remove spaces?
 

My problem is very simple. Let's say I type the following code:


If I press "Preview", it automatically changes the code to this:


As you can see, it automatically puts the text on one line. This is annoying because some people like to add spaces to make it easier to read.

Why is it doing this? Thanks.

my guess is its unnesessary as it will always be displayed the same way.

The removal of line breaks is not normal, it shouldnt be stripping the line break away.

@kiff, is this a custom quote system your using, meaning modified code to display the quote format?

but
[quote.]blah[/quote.]blah

appears as :

blah


and
[quote.]blah[/quote.]
blah

appears as :

blah



Same deal right?

No, if you look at his post, it shows in the 2nd example that its removing the line break after he previews it.

Snakes, I'm using this: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=166865

I would suggest posting in that thread and asking for support on his custom coding.

I did. Lol.

I see nothing wrong with the code, i even tested it on my dev site, are you sure you copied his coding correctly?

If he isnt supporting his hack, then that will need to be addressed by vbulletin staff, but it does function fine for me.

He answered me now, but it was second time posting the question. He said it was working fine for him, so he doesn't know what to do.

But I just realized, it's not just quotes. It's my bbcode in general! Even if I use other tags, it automatically puts it on one line. For example:

automatically changes to this after I press "preview":
So it must have something to do with editing interface in general. Any ideas?
