Save the following code to an HTML file. Open it with FireFox then do "View
Source". You will notice that View Source is injecting spaces that do not exist
(looks like an off-by-one bug). Specifically, take a look at the first <span>
tag. In the original code, it reads: <span wcn = "[border]"> while under FireFox
it reads: <span wcn =" [border]">. Notice the space is shifted from before the
quote to inside it. The actual code follows:

------------------------
<html>
<body>
    <span wcn = "[border]">
        <table width = "0%" border = "0" cellspacing = "0" cellpadding = "1"
bgcolor = "black">
            <tr>
                <td width = "100%" valign = "top">
                    <table width = "100%" border = "0" cellspacing = "0"
cellpadding = "4" bgcolor = "white">
                        <tr>
                            <td width = "100%">
                                <span wcn = "[body]"/>
                            </td>
                        </tr>
                    </table>
                </td>
            </tr>
        </table>
    </span>
</body>
</html>
------------------------

Reproducible: Always
Already fixed on the trunk, ready for the next release.

Just to clarify: does FireFox routinely merge changes from the main branch or do
I need to explicitly request that they port this change over to their codebase?
No, there is no need to ask for it to be ported. All changes on trunk will
appear in the next release (Firefox 1.1).
Status: RESOLVED → VERIFIED
Still not fixed in V1.0.3.
