I know that tinymce has the ability to allow and keep nbsp characters, but I don't see that implemented within CMSB. Also, I thought there should be a way (tool button or something) to insert nbsp characters by the user.
I have a user that REALLY wants two spaces between sentences...sometimes. How can I help her achieve this?
Thanks,
Gary.

Hey Gary,
A couple options:
1. You can use the hml button and instert the manually.
2. You can add the 'charmap' button to the tiny mce tool bar. With charmap the non-breaking space can be chosen with a nice gui.
To add charmap to your tinyMCE you'll need to edit the /lib/wysiwyg.php file. The tool bars are set as comma separated variables. Here is what mine looks like with charmap in the 3rd row.
Hope that helps,
Robin

I didn't know it was on the charmap.
I also tried adding the nonbreaking plugin, but it's not working for some reason within CMSB.
I'll tell the client about the charmap - it's cludgy compared to the nonbreaking plugin. I wish that were there.
Anyway, thanks for the info
Request - please add this plugin to the standard installation.
I've been queried about this before and just tell people that html doesn't allow it and they buy it, but this customer was pretty upset by that response.
