whitespace

[juliette]

I want two spaces between two words, and doing <pre>the words</pre> changes the font to a font I don't want, and doing &nbsp; makes the space the incorrect size.

I need the words to be separated by EXACTLY two spaces and WITHOUT changing the font.

Does anybody know how to do this?

You can override the default font-family for pre by specifying the specific font you wish to use in the CSS-- providing the end user has it on their system. Exact two-space spacing between words with pre (even using word-spacing), cross-browser and cross-os, is yet another matter. I doubt there's a solution for that one. You are at the whim of the browser and/or os afaik.

You could try using the "white-space: pre" style.
That shouldn't change the font but still render white-spaces in the same manner <pre> would.
