This comment, perfectly valid for all SGML parsers and those HTML browsers
I cared to check in with (lynx and netscape), fails on Mozilla M8:

<!--FOO--
    --BAR-->

The second line is displayed staring with the second '-' character on it only if
there are 4 or more spaces in the beginning of that line.

Chris -- I can't see this problem on NT. Can you please verify it?
Attempting to load the url I get :

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /~cubbi/coment-bug.html on this server.

Reporter, could you please move the file to a server that I could access to ?


Thanks !
oops, sorry, it was a typo and supposed to be 'comment-bug.html', now both work
right. (or wrong, if I load them with M8 on win95 :)
