is displayed when returned from database call

I am making a web Application, where non breakable space ( ) is
crucial to the layout. When I write directly into the html, it
is displayed correctly. But If I store a value in the database (MS Sql
server 2003) containing the code it is rendered to the browser
like this:
King Kong
instead of
King Kong
Any solutions'Yes, formatting shouldn=B4t be stored in the database unless you have to
use this in any way. I suggest formatting your text on the client side
not storing in in the server. Anyway, did you look at your HTML Code
which is rendered ? Perhap syou use a special control which does the
formatting for you, so that will be HTML coded as   int
the client code.
HTH, Jens Suessmeyer.|||To add to Jens' response, this is not a SQL Server issue because SQL Server
treats the data as a simple character string. The altering of the embedded
html codes occurs somewhere in your client code or components.

yes the hml code formats the retrieved string as KING&nbsp;KONG. I
will try to make a serverside function that exchanges all spaces in the
string with
I=B4ll let you know the result in 2 minnutes|||it worked!
it was quite easy
public static string unbreakSpaces(string oldstring)
{
return oldstring.Replace(" ", " ");
}
