Spaces and/or tabs

What I wish to know might be simple. What are the html codes for spaces and tabs? I have a program that converst text into html. but it doesn't convert present spaces and tabs.

And a second question would be: which code is the tab ASCII code? Can't seem to find that one either.

Thank you for the answer.

Regards,

danielsan

Code:

---

Horizontal tab = 	
Space =  
ASCII Tab as above 9 ( I think)

---

edit : well it only took three attempts to get that right :)

although the spaces work nicely, the tabs don't. Does this have anything to do with the browser element being embedded?

or & nbsp; (altogether - no space)

is a space too

Is there a difference between a space and a non-breaking space?

oh, and danielsan I don't know why the tab ain't working

&nbsp is the same as if you just pushed the space bar.

On a normal space, it can be used to wrap text at the space. A non-breaking space keeps the space on the same line as the surrounding text.
