BuildID: 2002051006
Mozilla Browser does not display the line-break special character "\A" in
content strings of CSS pseudo-elements :after and :before.
Maybe Mozilla doesn't render "\A" at all, other special characters (e.g.
Copyright "\A9") work, though.
Related specifications:
(http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/generate.html#propdef-content)
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Open the included page in Mozilla Browser
Actual Results: The "\A" is rendered as a space.
Expected Results: The "\A" should be rendered as a newline.

This is an error in the spec. The example needs to have 'white-space: pre' as
well. I belive the need for this was accepted by the working group. (Ian --
will this be corrected in the next version of CSS already, or do we need to
discuss it?)

http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-text/#white-space-props says:
Applies To: all elements and generated content
What more do we need?
