Hi Tony,

That space character is what I'm referring to; and no, it is not a 
line-space which would have been called a 'blank' as JAWS came across it.

Hi Flor,

Just checked that link again and the only space I found was going from the
first line to the next one!

Now I will try pasting in that link to my web browser ensuring that there of
course are no spaces in between!

Do you know how  many characters can a browser take for an url?

Thanks
