Problem

When you type a bunch of spaces into your TiddlyWiki, they look ok until you save and reload. Then any run of multiple spaces have been replaced with an single space. This also affects tab characters so it's especially nasty for plugins and code snippets. All your indenting gets trashed.

Solution

This only happens in Microsoft Internet Explorer. When IE stores tiddlers it replaces a set of spaces with a single space. There is no simple solution apart from switching to a different browser, such as Mozilla Firefox.

Also I believe the problem is fixed in 2.2 (currently in beta).

Guess Again

It happens in Firefox 2, TiddlyWiki 2.4.0.

And In FireFox 3. Hopefully there's a better solution than using  

'temporary note'

Using preformatted blocks should solve this issue.

However, even without those, it seems to work fine with TiddlyWiki v2.4.1 and both Firefox 3 and IE7 on Windows Vista.

I just upgraded to 2.4.1 and spaces are not preserved for me. I run TiddlyWiki in Firefox 3 on Vista
