Hi Vladimir, Yes, the behavior of the -i command line option was changed to match its historical behavior, namely --indent yes. For details, see http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=2512745. To get the prior output, use this: --indent auto See http://tidy.sourceforge.net/docs/quickref.html#indent Note, --indent yes (and, therefore, -i) is deprecated because the liberties it takes with whitespace are known to cause layout problems in browsers. hth, Charlie At 07:53 PM 2/28/2003 +0300, Vladimir Prus wrote: >Hello, >I've noticed that the recent C version of tidy > > (HTML Tidy for Linux/x86 released on 1st January 2003) > >as well as > > HTML Tidy for Linux/x86 released on 1st November 2002 > >produces output quite different from that of > > HTML Tidy for Linux/x86 (release date: 1st October 2002; built on > Oct 8 > 2002, at 23:33:07) > >when using "-i -wrap 78" options. > >For example, <h3> element is now split into three lines, except of been >placed on one.
