When you look at posting #6 of this thread, there is a code example. At one time, the forums (or maybe bboard?) would retain indentation. Any way to get that back? The "pre" / "/pre" tag likes to double-space the code. What's the reason for that?

27: the HTML pre tag (response to 26)

Jim, this is the same question you asked back in March, right?

HTML pre tags do not "like to double-space" anything. If you're seeing that effect, you're probably doing it wrong. Try editing your HTML text differently. Remember, the whole point of "pre" is to display pre-formatted text in a fixed-width font. Pretty much all the whitespace between the tags is significant, and will be displayed.
