is the same as .   is a normal space. Incidentally, for indivuals trying to compress their documents as much as possible without resorting to techniques such as server-side stream decompression, using a litteral ' ' character (chr(160)) is also the same as . I would personally advise against it, as most text editors do not show it as a different character than space. Also note that the high bit may get lost in email encoding, so it's possible that the character in quotes will be converted to a normal space by the time it gets to you....
