I'm confused about the correct interpretation of RE (newlines) in
the context of <pre> elements. According to the SGML spec you are
supposed to ignore the first RE in an element as well as the
last RE. However, most WWW browsers don't seem to follow those
rules. For example:
<pre>
Some <b>
bold
</b> text
</pre>
Is this equivalent to the following?
<pre>
Some <b>bold</b> text
</pre>
Can someone point me at some information on the correct interpretation
of RE in HTML3 compliant parsers?
Have fun,
