User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0

When displaying attributes of tags, Mozilla's View Source command will munge the
spacing if a page has been coded with spaces around the equal signs.  

For example, if the source document has

align = "center"

Mozilla will display it as

Align =" center"

Notice the extra space in front of center.

As far as I know, there's nothing in the HTML spec that says an attributes must
be assigned with no spaces around the equal sign.

Example at: http://gliff.org/testbed/bugzilla/view-source.html


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create tag with an attribute
2. Format with spaces around equal sign ex. align = "center"
3. Load Page in browser
4. View Source


Actual Results:  
Attribute is "rendered" by Mozilla as 

align =" center"

Expected Results:  
Attribute should be "rendered" by Mozilla as 

align = "center"

or

align="center"
This has already been fixed on the main development trunk (along with several
other such bugs in view-source).
