Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

A template to produce one or more non-breaking spaces (  character entities).

Usage[edit]

Syntax 
{{spaces|N|type}} ...... to produce N consecutive non-breaking spaces (where N is a whole number larger than zero) of the type specified by the second parameter: em, en, fig, hair, thin, or if not specified, a non-breaking space ( ) the same width as a standard space.

{{space|type}} produces a single non-breaking space of the type indicated.

Controlling line-breaking in infoboxes[edit]

This template, usually as its alias {{nbsp}}, may be used with {{wbr}} and {{nowrap}} to control line-breaking in bulletless lists in infoboxes, to prevent wrapped long entries from being confused with multiple entries. See Template:Wbr/doc#Controlling line-breaking in infoboxes for details.
