Datagrid Bug - multiple blank spaces in text are removed in columns [not a bug]

[Stefan B.]

In datagrid columns the json-text contains multiple blanks for e.g. "Stefan    B" but it is shown as "Stefan B". This is wrong when we search using the filter or show original customer data.

You can see the bug on demo page: http://www.jeasyui.com/demo/main/index.php?plugin=DataGrid&theme=default&dir=ltr&pitem=
Test with column 'Attribute '

Many browsers render only a space when encounter a series of spaces and tabs. A possible solution to solve this issue is to apply 'white-space:pre' style.

Code:

<style>
.datagrid-cell{
  white-space:pre;
}
</style>

OK THX. That's very tricky. So it was not a bug - sorry
Should this set to default in EasyUi datagrid style?

i agree with Stefan B.
in my project, i have to use lots of

Code:

formatter : function(value, row, index){
    return htmlEncode(value);
}

to avoid HTML characters

so, why not add a new property on datagrid column, something like

Code:

{
title : 'Desc',
field : 'desc',
htmlEncode : true
}

not only datagrid, also consider combobox, etc.
