any solution to keep correct markup.


Unfortunately this is not possible. When content is loaded into the editor (or when switching from the Code tab to the Editor tab), HTML is converted into a format in which it can be more easily and efficiently manipulated, then converted back to HTML for display in the editor. This process removes the whitespace (tabs, spacing etc.) between HTML tags, which is irrelevant to the rendering and display of HTML.

The Code editor does attempt to format the HTML again for readability when you switch to the Code tab, but any custom formatting you may have added before would have been removed.
