<p>How do you use the <strong>CSS</strong> <code>content</code> property to add <strong>HTML</strong> entities?</p>
<p>Using something like this just prints <code>&amp;nbsp;</code> to the screen instead of the non-breaking space:</p>
<pre class="lang-css prettyprint-override"><code>.breadcrumbs a:before {
  content: '&amp;nbsp;';
}
</code></pre>

Use the hex code for a non-breaking space. Something like this:
```
```
.breadcrumbs a:before {
  content: '>\00a0';
}
```
```
