nbsp not working in CK Editor

[Jules Vau]

Hello,
I use CK editor with ProcessWire 3.0.96 and I am not able to use a non-breaking space (nbsp).
When I put an nbsp in the "Source" window in CK Editor nothing happened to the client side, the markup is removed.

My configuration below:

• Content Type: Markup/HTML
• Edito Mode: Inline Editor
• Use ACF? Yes
• Use HTML Purifer? Yes
• Convert div tag to paragraphs tags Yes
• Remove empty paragraph tags Yes
• Remove non-breaking spaces (nbsp) No

I put nbsp; in Extra Allowed Content field but nothing happened.
Can anyone help me?

Thanks in advance.

Probably silly question, but you are entering   right?

It is working for me with the same settings as you show above (although I didn't enter anything in Extra Allowed Content as that shouldn't be needed in this case). I tested in 3.0.99 but I don't think anything has changed in this regard since 3.0.96.

Are you positive the   is not actually there in the source? Not sure what tool that screenshot is from but some tools will decode HTML entities in which case   would just display as a space between words.

Also, I can see an inline color style in your screenshot - is that coming from Javascript perhaps? If so, disable all your Javascript to make sure it is not responsible for converting the   entity.

You are right.
I was inspecting with Firefox decoder tool  which is not displaying nbsp whereas Chrome decoder tool (see image below) display them.
Thank you @Robin S you made my day whereas is only 8:30am in Paris!
