I use the Piano Black theme with the following custom CSS for the ‘pre’ tag:
pre { background-color: rgba(0,25,0,0.5); border: 0; border-left: 10px solid #333; overflow: auto; padding: 0 0 0 1em; font-size: 12px; }
That works fine if no URL appears in the block, as in
<pre> pre-styled short text without URLs... </pre>
correctly rendered as
pre-styled short text without URLs...
But if there’s an URL on a single line, extra lines are added and indentation is not respected. Indeed the following snippet
<pre> an URL on one line screws... http://foo ...line spacing and indentation </pre>
becomes
an URL on one line screws... http://foo ...line spacing and indentation
Even stranger, if the URL is mixed with other words on the same line, the line spacing is OK:
a line with URLs and other words... quux http://foo bar ...looks right!
And it looks like that other URLs are rendered correctly:
a different URL... ftp://foo ...is rendered correctly
Do I miss anything? What’s wrong with http://
inside a preformatted block?
