If tabs are used to indent code inside <pre> IE6 and 7 won't honor them
after the script runs.

Code indented with tabs will be shown aligned to the left margin instead of
the proper indenting shown in Firefox.

I'm using Revision 20 of prettify.js, IE 6.0.29.00 in English and IE
7.0.5730.11 in Spanish.

The attached file will reproduce the problem.

Thanks for the example.  Does IE assume a tab width of 8?

Comment 2 by jcarrascal, Mar 27, 2007

Normally yes, a tab width of 8 spaces, but using the script the tabs collapse and no
indentation is shown.
