How to type spaces in HTML

In HTML, spaces can be typed using the space character (ASCII code 32) or by using the   entity.

Using the Space Character You can type spaces in HTML using the space character, which is represented by its ASCII code 32. However, when you use the space character in HTML, the browser will ignore multiple consecutive spaces and collapse them into a single space.

Here's an example of how to use the space character in HTML:

<p>This is a paragraph   with multiple    spaces.</p>

In this example, multiple spaces are typed between the words in the paragraph. However, when the web page is rendered, the spaces will be collapsed into a single space.

Using the Non-Breaking Space Entity To type spaces in HTML without collapsing them, you can use the   entity. The   entity represents a non-breaking space, which is a space that cannot be broken by line breaks or word wraps.

Here's an example of how to use the   entity in HTML:

<p>This&nbsp;is&nbsp;a&nbsp;paragraph&nbsp;with&nbsp;multiple&nbsp;spaces.</p>

In this example, the   entity is used to type spaces between the words in the paragraph. When the web page is rendered, the spaces will be displayed as non-breaking spaces, and the browser will not collapse them into a single space.

By using the space character or the   entity, you can type spaces in HTML and control how they are displayed in the web page.
