Source Editor is adding superfluous spaces to my content

[Jeremy Seely]

I am entering content into the rich text editor which uses different text colors and has brackets (it's documentation for programming tokens). As soon as I open up the Source Editor and save, a whole bunch of spaces appear in between all the elements of my content.

Example:

$?<conditional A>[<true text>]?<conditional B>[<else if true text>][<else if false text>]

gets turned into:

$?<conditional A>[ <true text> ]?<conditional B>[ <else if true text> ][ <else if false text> ]

as soon as I hit "Apply" in the Source Editor. The source code is automatically turning into:

<strong>$?</strong> <em><conditional A></em> <strong>[</strong> <span style="color: rgb(0,0,255);"> <em><true text></em> </span> <strong>]?</strong> <em><conditional B></em> <strong>[</strong> <span style="color: rgb(0,204,255);"> <em><else if true text></em> </span> <strong>][</strong> <span style="color: rgb(255,0,0);"> <em><else if false text></em> </span> <strong>]</strong>

with all those spaces in there.

How do I stop this from happening?

Confluence version: 4.3

Source Editor version: 1.0.6

Browsers: Chrome, Firefox

Our team at Mohamicorp revamped the source editor while using it internally, and we're making it public as Source Editor for Confluence. It does not perform the server-side code beautification that the original plugin does, instead providing a more bug-free Beautify option in the editor.
