I need to enter a blank space in a tumblr headline. I can't figure out how to enter alt-255 for the blank.
The software in use here before the current one used to do that, too. Try entering a non breaking space, if HTML is allowed. You would enter it as:
 
This software won't let me enter this the way it's supposed to display. It would be the ampersand character followed by nbsp;
255 is not a space in any case, except maybe in legacy windows code. 255 is Unicode 00FF which is ÿ.
tumblr no doubt has a routine to remove multiple ordinary spaces. You might try nbsp (Uncode 00A0) or another space from the range at U+2000.
Maybe I'm heading down the wrong road. Here's what I want to do...
I have a 2 part headline. I'd like the first part on one line and the second part below it. I thought just adding spaces would work. Is there a force new line direction?
Why not just use the spacebar instead of the null character?
For some reason it doesn't do anything. You can put 10 spaces with the space bar, but when you save the page and then look at it, all the spaces are removed down to one.
Thank you! the 00A0 worked!
I spoke too soon. It worked on the preview page, but when you go to the actual page, it removes all the spaces.
