86275 - Spaces outside wrapped inline elements lost when wrapping [INLINE]

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

Description

[Hixie (not reading bugmail)]

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
   1. http://hixie.ch/tests/adhoc/css/box/inline/003.xml
   2. Resize the window, back and forth.

EXPECTED RESULTS
   The words run into each other -- the spaces separating their respective
   inline elements are lost.

ACTUAL RESULTS
   Any spaces not actually at the end of a line should be shown. Spaces at the
   end of a line (when white-space: normal) should be silently dropped when
   they turn into a line break.

You can see this with these testcases and pages:

(Note. Some of these pages, especially the first and the fourth, have other
known bugs visible on them.)

Example of lost white space after window resize

This bug can be seen in a plain HTML 2.0 document with hyperlinks (or any
inline
element). Shoudn't it get a higher priority? Looks like a data loss to me.
See attachment for a real (not very good but you get the idea) example of what
can happen when a white space is (visually) lost.

Yes, looks to be. Marking thus!
