"Paste HTML" destroys spaces

Post by Joseph Zitt »

When we bring in bits of HTML via "Paste HTML", instances of multiple underscored non-breaking spaces, such as

Code: Select all

<u>   </u>
become a single normal space:

Code: Select all

<u> </u>
This completely messes up the content.

We have literally hundreds of instances of this. Is there a fix?

Can you paste it into the text editor as text, rather than into the WYSIWIG editor as "Paste HTML"? I haven't tried it, but that should work...
