Version 1.4.1 messes up html formatting in PHP

Open murugappanrm opened this issue 2 years ago • 4 comments

In my index.php in the body section: This is the code entered:

<body>
        <form action="">
            <input type="text" name="" />
        </form>
 </body>

After saving the file, the formatting is messed up as:

<body>
        <form action  =  "">
         <input type  =  "text" name  =   "" />
        </form>
</body>

This happens when I enable "Align After Type Enter" .

This is expected behavior, I think you can use shortcuts(alt+A) instead.

Its ok. I fixed it. This extension was dependent on another extension for PHP. I corrected the setting in PHP and it works fine now. Except that the auto alignment does not work. I tested on 2 machines. I have to resort to key shortcuts. However it works fine in HTML scripts.

Not sure what the use case is for aligning on these elements...

There was no use case. It was settings in the Extension which caused the misalignment. I removed the setting and it works fine. I am not sure why this setting exists in the first place. The only problem is that that auto align does not work.
