Leading Spaces are getting trimmed..

Referring to : https://datatables.net/forums/discussion/13657/

I am using version 1.9.4 of the datatables jquery. Where can I find the code that is trimming the white spaces I intentionally create so that I can remove it.

Thanks.

Same goes for 1.10.11

It is done here. It is only done for data read from the DOM in 1.10 - Ajax loaded data will retain the whitespace if there is any.

The reason for doing this is that it is not uncommon to have HTML such as:

<td>
    Cell content
</td>

In such a case it makes sense to trim the white space, and it lead to a lot of frustration without it.
