Its quite a pain formatting posts relating to bridge hands.
It seems that spaces get automatically trimmed.
This complicates both posting hands and auctions.

Perhaps thats an option that can be changed.

How about a quick fix. Spacing seems to be preserved when you quote the hands in code .... It also serves to highlight the hands
eg:

AT42 KJxx
AJ98xx Kx
A xxxx
xx xxx


And also helps auctions:

W E
1H 1S
4S


It needs a bit of tidying up - which isn't too hard if you preview your post. To get the CODE tags there are two ways to do it. First: highlight the hand and then click on the hash sign (#) found above the message box (just under where it says colour, look up a bit). secondly type the word CODE in square brackets ([) at the start of the hand and /CODE in square brackets at the end.
