343434 - newline in ACRONYM tag / TITLE attribute breaks mouseover tooltip

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 67127

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Jim Wyllie]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.0.4) Gecko/20060623 Firefox/1.5.0.4
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.0.4) Gecko/20060623 Firefox/1.5.0.4

If one has some HTML like the following:

<acronym title="Content
Management System">CMS</acronym>

the tooltip won't display "Content Management System" but instead "Content     ".  I believe this is less desirable than the standard HTML practice of treating groups of whitespace as a single whitespace character.

Easy workaround is to ensure that there is no newline in the TITLE attribute of an ACRONYM tag.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Create acronym tag as shown above
2.  Test in Firefox version as specified above
3.  Profit
