This is the spaced en dash space template; it renders text in the same format as the HTML markup sequence – . The resulting text is three characters in a line in the following order: a non-breaking space (which cannot become a line break and will not collapse together with any normal spaces that come before the template),
A second common application of non-breaking spaces is in plain text file formats such as SGML, HTML, TeX and LaTeX, whose rendering engines are programmed to treat sequences of whitespace characters (space, newline, tab, form feed, etc.) as if they were a single character (but this behavior can be overridden).
HTML provides four variations on space width and one fixed-width non-breaking space: <space>,  ,  , and   (all breaking); and (non-breaking). In a typewriter font, <space> will equal   , but will vary according to the font designer's specification in all other fonts, whether proportional or monospace.
A non-breaking hyphen ‑ may be used to prevent this occurring, as in: As seen on page C‑2 of the newspaper. This code generates "page C‑2" just like the plain code "page C-2", but prevents a line break at the hyphen. However, like , the use of ‑ instead of "-" renders the source text harder to read and edit. Don't use ...
{} prevents wraps unless the space is too narrow to display the text on one line. {{inline block}} does the same and allows further style customization, but does not automatically add the "avoidwrap" CSS class. {} produces multiple non-breaking spaces (or a single one).

The zero-width space can be used to mark word breaks in languages without visible space between words, such as Thai, Myanmar, Khmer, and Japanese. [1] In justified text, the rendering engine may add inter-character spacing, also known as letter spacing, between letters separated by a zero-width space, unlike around fixed-width spaces. [1]
