Blank space wraps to next line of HTML text

Issue


In some cases, HTML-enabled text can wrap incorrectly, starting a line with a space instead of the next word.

Reason


This is an issue with HTML text handling in Macromedia Flash Player 7 and earlier versions.

Solution


This issue is fixed in Macromedia Flash 8. However, the fix only applies to content published as Flash Player 8 content in the Flash tab of Publish Settings. The fix is also only visible to viewers viewing the SWF with Flash Player 8.

SWF files created for Flash Player 7 or earlier will still show the blank space at the beginning of the line.

SWF files created for Flash Player 8, but viewed with Flash Player 7 or earlier, will still show the blank space at the beginning of the line.
