Rich suggestionBox not displaying more than one space between words

[amuamu]

Hi

I used rich suggestionBox in one of my pages.I supplied a list of selectItems to it.The selectItem value and label are set separately.

When i added two defferent select item like

SelectItem sItem1 = new SelectItem("value1","My Value");

SelectItem sItem2 = new SelectItem("value2","My  Value");

the first one is with one space where as the second one is with two space in label.

Now the problem starts both the labels are displayed with only one space in suggestion box.

Please suggest any way to overcome this problem without changing the label.

Any suggestion is wel come.

Thanks in advance for your help.

not suggestion box problem. It's normal HTML behavior. Use non-braking spaces for that.

if you want to do this you should add "&nbsp"  SelectItem sItem2 = new SelectItem("value2","My &nbsp <pre>&nbsp;</pre> Value"); or the encoding code for a space for example utf-8 \u0020, SelectItem sItem2 = new SelectItem("value2","My \u0020 \u0020 Value")
