Re: How do I create non-breaking space (  ) with HTML::Element?

in reply to How do I create non-breaking space (  ) with HTML::Element?

I'd take a look at the ~literal pseudo-element in the docs .. that looks like it should be able to do what you need.

Untested, but ..

  my $literal = HTML::Element->new('~literal',
    'text' => ' '
  );
  my $element = HTML::Element->new('td', "class"=>"zwischanspalte");
  $element->push_content($literal);

might give you some ideas :)

Hope that helps ...

Thanks foxcub, that did the trick. I just had to delete whitespace to pass the test :)

use strict;
use warnings;
use HTML::Element;
use Test::More qw(no_plan);

my $literal = HTML::Element->new('~literal',
    'text' => ' '
  );

my $element = HTML::Element->new('td', "class"=>"zwischanspalte");
$element->push_content($literal);

my $expected = '<td class="zwischanspalte">&nbsp;</td>';

my $html = $element->as_HTML();
$html =~ s/[\r\n]//;
is($html, $expected);
