Layout Settings Not Allowing a HTML Space
I am trying to add spaces to my layout setting area (Categories SubCategories Indent and another field on this page). Obviously I should be able to add this to the field: or this for a double space: and save right? Pretty simple in the past.
These areas did haves the space entered as default but I removed them during some testing. Now I want them back. When I add this coding to this admin area and save it creates this:
Code:
  
and no spaces happen where they should.
It won't let me put the standard coding in the field it converts the & symbol to the html version. And it does not add the space if I put the cursor in the box and hit the space bar then save. It just stays blank. This seems like a bug to me. How can I enter the space coding and have it properly convert? Never had this before something is funny.
See attached image below please.

Re: Layout Settings Not Allowing a HTML Space
Try escaping the ampersand, like:
/ :/ :
or should it be
\ :\ (I often get these mussed up) :)
No promises that it'll work, but worth a shot.

Re: Layout Settings Not Allowing a HTML Space
I tried your suggestion the issue still persist. It still converts the ampersand even with the escape.

Although reported not to work, the backslash (on US keyboard typically above the enter key) is the escape key. I think though that gilby's suggestion is the more likely correction at least when dealing with a slightly older install of ZC 1.5.5 as sanitization rules went through some further development after release.
Re: Layout Settings Not Allowing a HTML Space
Thank you Gilby the solution you provided worked! I did perform a search before asking this question but for some reason just did not find the answer you provided. Anyway, I appreciate your help!
Re: Layout Settings Not Allowing a HTML Space
What version of Zen Cart 1.5.5 are you running? I had no issue setting the Breadcrumb Separator to :: in a ZC 1.5.5a admin. There were "sanitization" problems in the "un-suffixed" versions of 1.5.5, but that was corrected in 1.5.5a.
Re: Layout Settings Not Allowing a HTML Space
I am running version 1.5.5a fresh install (I am fairly sure of this). I didn't have to modify the third file, that says if you have v1.5.5a no need to modify. And the fix worked properly. So I don't know why it didn't work for my 1.5.5a but did for you. But it is a slightly older 1.5.5a install. I installed it on 5/28/2016.
When I download the Zen Cart program, I name the folder the version number of the download. So when I look at my original zen cart website files I can clearly see which version I started with. My folder says v1.5.5a.

My original test version of 1.5.5a shows the problem. Might have been fixed in a later version of 1.5.5a

Arggh, you're correct (of course). While 1.5.5a corrected many of the "over-sanitization" issues, the issue reported by @sports guy was corrected in v1.5.5c.
