Add a space (“ ”) after an element using :after

Question

I want to add a blank space after some content, however the content: \" \"; doesn\'t seem to work.

This is my code:

h2:after {
    conte         


        

Answer 1

Turns out it needs to be specified via escaped unicode. This question is related and contains the answer.

The solution:

h2:after {
    content: "\00a0";
}
