I can't reproduce this. Can you elaborate more on what you mean by "auto format"? Is a format on save? Code action on save? Or do you trigger the format? Please also describe the steps to reproduce. I don't understand what is the implication of the video. Does the cursor position have anything to do with the issue?

Both Format Document and format on save reproduction this bug
Have you try this snippet

<button class="text-slate-500 bg-red-500 rounded-sm text-ellipsis"
  > Show Popup
</button>

Yeah, I tried both, but I can't reproduce it. That's why I thought there might be something else you didn't mention. It might be related to your config. Does this happen in an empty SvelteKit project? If not, please provide a reproduction repository. If it does, can you create an empty settings profile in VSCode to see if the problem persists and find the config or extension causing the problem?

Conflict with html.autoClosingTags vscode setting
But the default setting is true

[jasonlyu123]

If turning off html.autoClosingTags can stop the issue, the problem is that the formatting causes small changes to the file similar to when you manually typed > and therefore triggers the auto-closing tag. This is also an edge case that only happens if you have a single attribute that is very close to the prettier print width config and has the end start tag in the next line. Took me a long time to find the exact way to reproduce it.

By the time the auto-closing tag is triggered, there is no way to differentiate if the change is user input or formatting, so it'll be hard to fix without changing how auto-closing tags work. Until we can come up with a workaround you can "Ctrl+z"(Command-Z) to undo the closing tag whenever it happens.
