Firefox seems to be breaking my html code

hello -

I have the following HTML:

<a class='login' href='https://mydomain.com/'>

<img width='200' height='50' src='https://developers.google.com/identity/images/btn_google_signin_dark_normal_web.png' alt='Login Logo' /> <!--notice trailing space character and forward-slash character-->

</a>

This works fine in Chrome, but in Firefox 68.0.1, the trailing space and the slash character between the last single quote and the close-arrow character of the tag is being eliminated when the page loads, so the HTML looks more like this:

.............._normal_web.png' alt='Login Logo' ></a>

and the image is not loading, and instead, the "alt" text appears instead.

However, when i RIGHT_CLICK it, select "Inspect element" and "Edit HTML", then and add the space and forward-slack back in the code, then it looks fine.

Does anybody have any thoughts why firefox might be eliminating the space and forward-slash character? is there an easy workaround?

never mind, fixed it with css, but it still seemed pretty odd....

i figure it works in chrome, it should work the same in firefox.
