A non-breaking space has a different meaning to whitespace having importance. e.g., the two are different strings: - 'This is a test' - 'This is a test' Reproduce code: --------------- <?php highlight_string('foo bar'); Expected result: ---------------- &<code><span style="color: #000000"> foo&nbsp;&nbsp;bar</span; </code> Actual result: -------------- <pre><code><span style="color: #000000"> foo bar</span> </code></pre> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=42448&edit=1
