No spaces after periods?

1 Oct 01, 2006 16:27    

This might be a silly question, or I might just be ignorant.

I just setup a b2evolution 1.82 site for myself using the style wpc_default. I noticed that all the text runs together between the sentences. Even though I have two spaces after a period, when I publish or save the post the spaces go away.

Is there a setting I'm missing or is it just a problem with the style. If it is a problem with the style anyone know what code to change?

If you want to see the example on my site here it is: http://principato.us, notice how all the sentences don't have any spaces between them.

Thanks,
Mark P.

You DO have a space between sentences. Try using a different font style.

I'll check it out. From looking at it, and coping and pasting the text into another app, there is only one space.

Looking into setting another font. . . .

markvp, when displaying HTML multiple spaces get trimmed down to a single one..

Use   if you want to force a non-breaking space.

You will only get one space in HTML. Remember that in rendering all white space is gone unless your styles force that.

The recommendation for another font was to use one that doesn't look so crowded. Verdana and Tahoma are good alternatives.
