149042 - View source display misses out attribute of href link

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 154924

(Core Graveyard :: View Source, defect)

Description

[John Levon]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.0+) Gecko/20020530
BuildID:    20020530 CVS trunk

View source of the above page and search for
"more", until you get to the more > link. Note
that the visible text (wrapped) is something like :

						<a href="/apps3/bigbrother/news/newsstory.jsp?id=3157"
="bb3mainnews2">more&nbsp;&gt;</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

The bit starting ="bb3 is at the start of the line. In fact
the actual source is class="bb3..., but this does not
show in the display. However, it /does/ show when you copy
the text, and paste it elsewhere (e.g. into a form textarea).

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load above page and view source
2. Find the link using find, and observe it


Actual Results:  Saw link with missing text "class" before "=bb3..."

Expected Results:  HAve shown the text verbatim without missing any..

Works for me; it shows:

<a href="/apps3/bigbrother/news/newsstory.jsp?id=3191"
class="bb3mainnews2">more&nbsp;&gt;</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

The class attribute is there for everyone to see.

Jan, where does the source wrap for you ?

[John Levon]

bug 149040 comment 2 obviously does not see the problem either.
Linux-specific ?

Doh.  I searched for this for a bit before filing the bug that got this fixed,
but didn't find it....  :(
