Ted,

This doesn't work, at least not in Firefox -- the <br /> tags still cause line-breaks even when declared as inline.

My earlier suggestion of:

        Sentence.<span> </span>Next sentence.
        span { word-spacing: 1em; }

doesn't work perfectly, either. It appears to work fine in ragged-right text, but when the text is justified, each span clearly takes up a few pixels of width when it comes at the end of a line. Oh, well!

Paul
