Description Matt Rogers 2007-06-05 05:09:33 UTC
Version:           0.12.5 (using KDE KDE 3.5.6)
Installed from:    I Don't Know
Compiler:          gcc 
OS:                Linux

When sending rich text messages to clients using gaim and/or trillian, an extra newline is rendered on the receiving end. This is probably due to sending something like "<span>foo bar baz<br></span>" to the server. If there is only one newline in the message, then kopete should remove the "<br>" tag generated from that in order to avoid sending the newline.

This screenshot shows the problem that gaim and trillian clients will see when
being on the receiving end of a message from Kopete to either of those clients.

Comment 5 Linus Berglund 2007-07-29 18:29:14 UTC
I can also confirm this in jabber in Kopete. Sending rich text messages with jabber results in an extra space below for the reciever. When exporting the message the messages recieved that has the extra spaces looks like:

<span style="" class="KopeteMessageBody"><p xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" style="font-family: Sans Serif; ">Bättre nu?<br xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><br>
</p></span>

and messages sent when Rich text is on looks like:

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: DejaVu Sans; " class="KopeteMessageBody"><span style="color:#000000">blir det konstiga mellanrum?</span><br></span>

Without rich text there are no <br>s sent.

I am seeing this problem again talking to a friend on AIM with Kopete trunk (r875603).

At line 223 of aimcontactbase.cpp, we are stripping <BR> from the end of the string, but that does not take into account any closing tags that may be present (e.g. "<font size='3'>foo<br></font>").
