Template:Thin space

<span style="white-space:nowrap">&thinsp;</span>

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template can be used to display the HTML character entity   (Unicode: U+2009).

Usage

Many browsers allow word wrapping at  . Using this template will cause thin spaces to not word break. This web page can be used to check how Unicode space characters display in a browser window.

Examples

{{Coord|36|34|42|N|118|17|31|W}}<ref>example</ref> → 36°34′42″N 118°17′31″W

Fatal error: The format of the coordinate could not be determined. Parsing failed.

{{Coord|36|34|42|N|118|17|31|W}}{{thin space}}<ref>example</ref> → 36°34′42″N 118°17′31″W

Fatal error: The format of the coordinate could not be determined. Parsing failed.
