I have a dropdown list that I would like to put in a bunch of 's into
it (I'm setting the font to a monospace font so I can show a couple of
columns nice and neat).
In the old asp days, I had no problem doing this, but now if I try to do
something like this...
boxOption.Items .Add(New ListItem("myFir stCol &nbs p; myLastC ol"))
....it converts each & to a &
Any way to make the non-breaking space to work properly...or should I say,
they way I want it to?
Thanks.

Rob,
This behaviour is hard-coded into the RenderContents method of the
DropDownList class. Luckily, DropDownList is not sealed, so you can
easily override the behaviour.
HTH,

In XHTML the entity nbsp stands for
A normal space like " " is also displayed as an normal space,
but multiple spaces like " " are interpreted as 1 space in the
xhtml page.
So there comes the in handy: with " " you have two
spaces. So with the nbsp entity you can create multiple spaces (in the display).
Now i have an xml file with entities,
i put it in an xsl-file that know xhtml entities.

I am using the following trim function:

I create a HTMLTable in my C# code and then add rows and cells into that table.
I'm trying to set top and bottom border for each cell by using stylesheet

If cell has no content at all, the borders do not show up (..strange)
So I tried to insert text inside each cell which has no other content
inside.
Cell content is set in code:

Hi,
ASP.NET C# 2.0

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
