HTML: More than 1 space!

Mp)Tarh · 08-28-2003, 06:35 AM

HTML seems to limit you to using 1 space, even when you put more than 1 in the code!

Though I know not why, this is the way to put more than one space:

& nbsp;

REMOVE THE SPACE BETWEEN THE "&" and the "nbsp;"!!!!

I put a space between the & and the nbsp so that your browser doesn't think of it as a space. Remove those, and place them how you like and each one will make an (unrestricted) space!

(So far the only browser I know where this doesn't work is Netscape 1.0)

NOTE: This also works in these forums so you can have more than one space!!!

Here is the code in action:
