Details

When selecting text in element formatted as "white-space: pre" using CSS, line-breaks are not copied along, resulting in the whole shebang in one single long line. The same paragraph formatted using <pre> works fine. On-screen display is same in both cases (correctly formatted as pre) Without this bug, it would be possible, in online tutorials, to style code examples with just <code>...</code> rather than <pre><code>...</code></pre>
