Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 19894
Non-breaking hyphen in HTML wrong
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:38:26 UTC
Non-breaking hyphen (ctrl-shift-dash) is converted to a non-breaking space entity (nbsp) when saving a document as HTML.
Confirmed WinXPPro/OOo1.1 I created a new HTML document and applied CRTL + SHIFT + minus to create a non-breaking dash. I saved the document as HTML and reopened it. The dash remained. I created a new Writer document, created the non-breaking dash and saved as HTML. When I re-opened the HTML document, the dash had been replaced by a space. Tam
Reassigned to ES
The problem is that "non breaking hyphens" don't exist in HTML for browsers only break on spaces. Fix proposal: export the Writer non breaking hyphens as simple hyphens
.
I use non-breaking hyphens and export to HTML. I've just installed OO.o 3 and I see this issue is still present unfortunately.
