60931 - Left over (ghost) space is wrapped to next line

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 19265

(Core :: DOM: Core & HTML, defect, P3)

Description

[James Helferty]

When you're typing in any textarea, or input area of any type, and you come to
the end of a line, and the line's complete, hitting space will cause the space
character to appear at the start of the following line.  Preferred would be for
the space character to become 'invisible' and stay on that line.

This shows up in several otherplaces, too, where multi-line textboxes are used.
 It appears to be a problem with the mozilla text widget, since it manifests
itself in mail composing mode as well as in forms.

(This isn't the same as the hit space, page down bug; rather, this is about a
ghost space appearing at the start of the following line from a full line of text.)

Example:

______________________________________________
I'm typing along and hit the end of a line and
 oh look, there's a phantom space on my left..
