Alignment of a result field

[eddie wang]

My field result is " Total Operating Revenue", which has spaces
before the words.

But, when I use the following html to display, I don't see the spaces.
Why? Thanks.

<td align="Justify" bgcolor="#FFFF99"><Font
class=content4><%=ars.Fields("line_item_nm")%></font></td>

Because HTML ignores white space. You can use replace(str, " ", "&nbsp;")
or <PRE></PRE> maybe.

html issue --

change the spaces to &nbsp; if you want them all to show up -- most browsers
will only display one space in any given string of spaces. Personally I
would set the table justification differently

Whitespace is collapsed in HTML. What are you trying to accomplish? Note,
your code is using several depreciated items that you should consider
removing (the align attribute, the bgcolor attribute, and the font tag).

If the whitespace is actually part of the content, then you could replace
the spaces with &nbsp;.

May I know how to use replace(str, " ", " ") or <pre></pre>?

Thanks.
