I had the ampersand in the original code, but when I edited this post to fix a spelling mistake the whole nbsp thing got replaced as a space here and when I edited the post a 3rd time to put it back I forgot the ampersand.

Thank you very much, I was starting to think I would have to alter the core wordpress files themselves (which means I’d probably have to do it after every update), I’ll go and have a look at what you posted :-).

Not really feasible, this is on my wifes wordpress blog and she doesn’t know any of this “web stuff”
