Description Krinkle 2012-07-29 20:39:12 UTC
Created attachment 10902 [details]
Screenshot of Tidy bug

Steps to reproduce:
* Install MediaWiki 1.20alpha + SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi extension
* Make sure $wgUseTidy is not set to true in LocalSettings.php (just in case)
* Create a page with <syntaxhighlight source="php">foo();</syntaxhighlight>
* View source of the saved page:

<div dir="ltr" class="mw-geshi mw-code mw-content-ltr"><div class="javascript source-javascript"><pre class="de1">foo [..]

The page looks fine.

* Now enable $wgUseTidy (requires that your server has tidy installed)
* View source of the saved page:

<div dir="ltr" class="mw-geshi mw-code mw-content-ltr">
<div class="javascript source-javascript">
<pre class="de1">
foo<span class="br0">( [..]


This is problematic since elements that preserve whitespace (which can be any element, there is no way to tell from the source code - this is determined by css) will now show up to 3 more new lines before the word "foo".

I've been looking around in the Tidy configuration, but can't find a way to disable this.

Can you check if https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/15781/ fixes the issue?
Comment 2 Krinkle 2012-07-30 23:03:21 UTC
@Marcin: That is in no way related and will not change the number of actual lines outputted by the Tidy parser. This is a bug in Tidy (or a configuration issue), not in Geshi or MediaWiki core.

Comment 4 Tim Starling 2012-08-02 04:34:53 UTC
Can you revert I7eec3ffe and use some non-production wiki for your testing?
Comment 5 Tim Starling 2012-08-02 04:36:46 UTC
I see every computer-related article on Wikipedia is broken. How about I just revert it myself?
Comment 6 Tim Starling 2012-08-02 04:54:35 UTC
Reverted in I1ebe3797 and I1977f093 and deployed. Article display seems to be fixed now.
