            Bug ID: 35231
           Summary: bad HTML in ppa line results in leading space in
                    Firefox
           Product: WineHQ.org
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86-64
               URL: http://www.winehq.org/download/ubuntu
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: www-unknown
          Assignee: wine-bugs at winehq.org
          Reporter: info at skierpage.com
    Classification: Unclassified

I followed the instructions in http://www.winehq.org/download/ubuntu ,
but when I copy and paste the line
 ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa
into Muon Package Manager (the Kubuntu software installer), the button to add
the source wouldn't enable.

The glitch is if you triple-click the line in Firefox (and SeaMonkey) and copy
it, it includes a leading space, so the Software Sources dialog thinks it's
invalid. The workaround is easy, remove the leading space in the dialog, but
it's easy to miss.

The fix is to fix the HTML of that page to not have the whitespace in front.
It's currently the invalid

<p>Then, <b>copy and paste the line below</b>.</p>

<i>ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa</i></p>

If you change the second line to

<p><i>ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa</i></p>

then the problem goes away.
