I gather the question is whether an input of whitespace only (and at least one) should collapse to a single space character or to the empty string. I don't think that proposed definition answers the question any better than the status quo version. Assuming we *want* to have one space character remain, we should say something explicit, like "; if the original string consisted of only whitespace, the final result is one space character" (added just before the final period). -- Configure bugmail: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.Received on Sunday, 22 March 2009 00:45:34 GMT
