blank.

This is most likely easily solved if we properly implement the 
display: style attribute (issue #124) that controls the automatic 
insertion of blank spaces for any adjacent elements. This should 
handle correctly at least:

display: none
display: block
display: inline
display: inline-block
display: run-in

It is not only controlled by display: (which appears to control 
insertion/skipping of \n) but also by

white-space: normal
white-space: nowrap         (auch <td>/<th> attribut 
nowrap)
white-space: pre            (default of <pre>)
white-space: pre-wrap
white-space: pre-line

some more things to be implemented in the same area:

visibility: visible | hidden | collapse | inherit
text-transform: uppercase | lowercase | capitalize | none | inherit
text-decoration: none | underline | overline | line-through | blink 
| inherit
quotes: ... (replace quotes by these unicode characters
ceonten: ... (inser as additional content :before or :after)

appears to be solved by rewrite of CSS engine.
