Formally, in the English language there are situations apon which extra space is inserted between items. Some examples include the two space after a period ending a sentence and the two spaces between the state and zip code in an address. Do people suggest this extra space be maintained in HTML documents and how do people propose to do it? I currently use where needed, and rely on the hope that the browser will take one NBSP and one breaking space to make 2 spaces, but I don't think that NBSP requires this: Hello There does not have to be taken as: Hello There and may instead be resorted back to Hello There But a browser like LYNX 2.1 had no problem with just using two spaces, but does not like NBSP! Suggestions welcome... -|- Carl Morris (N0YUV) -|- 1:285/302 -|- msftrncs@htcnet.com -|- -|- Hooper Connections BBS -|- 1-(402)-654-2102 -|- 28.8kbps V.34 -|- -|- http://199.120.83.179/~moreese/ -|-
