How to put a leading space in a WebPopupMenu

Targets Web

I want all the items in a WebPopupMenu to have a leading blank space…

pm_Schools.AddRow("  "+tempDict.Value("name"))

That doesn’t work as the space is ignored.

Thanks

pm_Schools.AddRow(&u00A0 +  &u00A0 + &u00A0 + tempDict.Value("name"))

The more typical (in the web world)   may work as well (stands for non-breaking space)

I haven’t tried it myself though.

In html multiple spaces are typically reduced down to a single space and returns are ignored altogether.   is a mainstay for quick spacing tasks.

Does not work. The menu will just show " Hello" for instance. HTML is escaped.

Don’t confuse Xojo code and the HTML code it produces. Xojo Web does not understand HTML entities, even if in the end that is what it sends to the browser.
