non breaking space

  • Anyone knows whether it’s possible to put more than one space after a comma without having to use the annoying non breaking space? Would Markdown take care of that? Sounds silly, but I have a long habit of inserting double spaces after a sentence.

  • You could use a Quicktag to insert the   for you ?

    And how do I do that?

    Well, I know. The point is to find a way to get the same result without having to enter   each time I end a sentence.

    html is not designed to take 2 spaces without the nbsp thingy. and since wp takes html tags, i guess manual is the way to go. (u can use pre tag :p)

    Download quicktags.js from wp-admin
    Open it up in Wordpad (or similar)
    paste this at the end of the lines that look the same structure as this:
    edButtons[edButtons.length] = new edButton('ed_nbsp'
    ,'nbsp'
    ,' '
    ,''
    ,''
    );
    That’ll get you the button.
    If the code output doesn’t work when it gets published, change the line with the ampersand.

    Ack .. it’s taken all the spaces away ….. looks like I needed some   there ??

    @ podz: no, doesn’t work. I get the button but the <> shows once the post is published.
    @ beel: if I undestand well, your solution would put 2 spaces automatically after each period. Right? But then, doesn’t that mean that “…” will be rendered as “. . . “?

    Jpierre – I just used it on my blog ….
    put   there, not the &

    take the amp; away, and it’ll look the same – I cannot get it to display right …..

    yes!! Cool !
