Inside the Insert citation box you are already in TeX mode. Therefore the
solution is to write p.\ 89. (\ is the ERT for normal space) or even
better p.~89 which is protected space and prevents a line break.
The more general solution would be to use \frenchspacing, i.e. to have
normal spacing also after sentences.

Re: Secured space in citations -- found bug
First of all, thanks for the many responses. Then, I found a bug: Insert a citation via the dialogbox and fill in the text after citation: box. Click OK. The dialog is closed. Click on the citation in the document. The dialog is opened again with the OK button disabled. Change the field text after citation: . OK button is still disabled - BUG ! Only changing s.th. with the citation itsself enables the OK button. LyX 1.1.6 fix 1 Is this already known? Chris

Inside the "Insert citation" box you are already in TeX mode. Therefore the
solution is to write "p.\ 89". ("\ " is the ERT for "normal" space) or even
better "p.~89" which is "protected space" and prevents a line break.
The more general solution would be to use \frenchspacing, i.e. to have
normal spacing also after sentences.
