[jira] [Comment Edited] (TIKA-3024) Extra whitespace appended
within a tag element's text
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-3024?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17088929#comment-17088929 ]

------------------------------------------------------------
I reproduced the issue with a simple Word (or OpenDocument) file consisting of just one word:
> o*n*e
This is actually parsed as follows:
```
<p>o
<b>n</b>e
</p>
```
Which is not correct, because the whitespace between `O` and `<b>` implicitly causes a space (when you open it in a browser).
The expected result should be as follows:
```
<p>o<b>n</b>e
</p>
```
Note that currently the case above can still be distinguished from the following (with a space behind the "o")
> o *n*e
That is, the parser result is almost the same, except that there is an additional space between the "o" and the line feed.
Removing whitespace with this regex seems to do the trick: `/\n +/`

> While parsing the content of the page using Tika Parser, it splits the text in the tag and sends it to crawler4j for content handling. But the text is contained within a single tag (span tag). The content handler appends extra whitespace (" ") as it normally does for any text received
> Text: "Tel: +91-22-61801700".
> That is,
> Expected text: "<text before this>Tel: +91-22-61801700<text after this>"
> Actual text: "<text before this>Tel: +91-22-6180170 0<text after this>"
> The JS path of the element: body > div > div:nth-child(6) > div > div.footer-full.footer-btm > div > p > span
