Can't you just put an actual space in between them?

<option value="<%=(RSGroup.Fields.Item("GroupManagerID").Value)%>" ><%=(RSGroup.Fields.Item("ManagerName").Value)%> <%=(RSGroup.Fields.Item("ManagerSurname").Value)%></option>

Like that?

I noticed that...I tried to follow up with your statement with an example but it wouldn't let me put the

 

in the code. After I posted and saw that it wasn't there, I figured you did the same thing and it just doesn't show up...I deleted it.

Ok, it did it again, in that code block it should say "& n b s p ;" but when I put it there, it treats it as a space...

Thats wierd.

Maybe it is a bug in the code tags? I would think that the code tags would not process those codes for just these reasons. Of showing examples. Maybe i will post something about this in the forum feedback section and see if they can fix it.
