How to Display white spaces on Label Text ??

[Bloody_Joe]

Hello everyone,
I have a label and I want to display on it the following string: "
String, "
Apparently, the white spaces at the beginning and at the end are being
wrapped, so ,
does anyone have an idea how to fix this ???
Thank's !

hi,

white space (such one not required to be send over network) is by
default truncated (collapsed) by browsers (I think dated from old-
times when phone lines were frequently used)

You might see if whitespace related issues 1520, 960 or 314 need your vote:

  http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/issues/detail?id=1520
  white-sapce:pre broken due to IE innerHTML whitespace clobbering

  http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/issues/detail?id=960
  DOM.setInnerText inconsistent white-space translation FF/IE

  http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/issues/detail?id=314
  Label getText() in a SimplePanel does not equal value from setText() when new lines are involved

You could also use css on the label to add padding or margin spacing
to the label.
