Re: Breaking space in an block

  works great.  Didn't know I could do that.  Many
thanks.

Out of interest for a deeper understanding of embperl, why
doesn't a
regular space do the trick?

Thanks

It has to do with HTML, not Embperl.  Generally, whitespace
in an HTML 
document is ignored.  The &32; or otherwise written as
&nsbsp; is a 
non-breaking space and specifically not ignored.
