When you say "intermittent," do you mean that it happens sometimes but
not all the time?
What do you mean by "leading spaces"? Do you mean lines that begin with
space characters (i.e., ASCII #32) or do you mean whole blank lines?
About how many spaces are you putting in?
Approximately what date & time did you last see this? The system logs might
tell me something.
It sounds like it's something on your end, however -- if it were just a
server problem, your internet connection wouldn't hang. At most, your browser
would keep its hourglass cursor until you clicked "Stop" and it certainly
wouldn't drop carrier.
