<p>In a drop down list, I need to add spaces in front of the options in the list. I am trying</p>

<pre><code>&lt;select&gt;
&lt;option&gt;&amp;#32;&amp;#32;Sample&lt;/option&gt;
&lt;/select&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>for adding two spaces but it displays no spaces. How can I add spaces before option texts?</p>

```
```
&nbsp;
```
```
Can you try that? Or is it the same?
