Hi Jonathan, (Original message slightly reordered for clarity.) > In my view whether the character data within the 'tspan' element is null or > space it should be respected. I'm not sure if this has to do with the "tspan" element: white space handling is done at XML level so, if one wants white space to be handled as-is, 'xml:space="preserve"' should be used in that set of elements. See the XML specification regarding white space handling [1] for more information. ;-) > There is currently a difference in rendering between UAs, and no > errata found. I'd say the differences can be implementation issues (i.e., not respecting the default value for "xml:space", which is not to preserve white space)...? Could you elaborate a bit on which specific implementations did you experience the incoherent behavior (mostly for curiosity, currently)? Hope this helps, Helder [1] http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml/#sec-white-space
