In HTML, if you produce this space with the space bar, the space is not cumulative (only count 1). To use html entities represented before the accumulation, the space occupied by the width font clear and strong influence.

Five. & Zwnj;
It's called zero-width non-joiner, stands for Zero Width Non Joiner, referred to as "ZWNJ", is a non-printing characters, placed between two characters in electronic text, inhibition of ligatures would have happened, but in the two the original font characters to draw. Unicode is zero-width non-joiner mapped character "" (zero width non-joiner, U + 200C), HTML numeric character reference to: & # 8204;
六．& zwj;
It's called zero-width joiner, stands for Zero Width Joiner, referred to as "ZWJ", is a non-printing characters, placed between some require complex typesetting language (such as Arabic, Hindi) of two characters, making this this two ligatures not going to happen had ligature effect.
