== Why is this an issue?

The proper use of white space makes a major contribution to code readability. 


This rule raises an issue when there is not a space character after the beginning and before the end of each comment (``++<!-- ... -->++``), directive (``++<%@ ... %>++``), and expression (``++<% ... %>++``).


=== Noncompliant code example

[source,html]
----
<!--Do the thing-->  <!-- Noncompliant; missing space at beginning and end of text-->
<%@page import="java.io.*,java.util.*" %> <!-- Noncompliant; missing space at beginning -->
<% String title = "My Page";%> <!-- Noncompliant; missing space at end -->
----


=== Compliant solution

[source,html]
----
<!-- Do the thing -->
<%@ page import="java.io.*,java.util.*" %>
<% String title = "My Page"; %>
