BUG:   converted to space

[apb]

To reproduce:

1. Go to html view in editor.
2. Enter one or more " "
3. Switch to edit view.
4. Switch back to html view.

Any explicitly entered " " will have been converted to spaces.

Worse, these do not appear to be normal spaces (#32). They seem to be some funky unicode character that, when written to an html file on disk and viewed in a browser, appears as a "?".

This is VERY ANNOYING. The editor should NEVER change explicitly entered html entities!!!

And it should handle spaces properly (whether entered via the spacebar in edit view or as an entity in html view).

Note that the title of this thread has the string "nbsp;" in it, which disappeared because it is not being HtmlEncoded.

Hi,

I found out the following forum link which discusses on a similar scenario as yours. Hopefully, this should provide you with somr insight:
displaying HTML non-breaking space

Thanks

Thanks, Princy. That was the same issue. 

I wish they would fix this. It's a pretty major bug and that post was a year and a half old.
