Can't get a space between currency symbol and amount

Can't get a space between currency symbol and amount

Hi,

I have an online shop with catalogue and detail pages. I used to have the currency symbol and the amount with no space like this €100,00.

To change that I added   behind the currency symbol in the eCart object. That changed the look on the catalogue page like this € 100,00, but not on the detail page. There the amount still clings to the € symbol.

I also tried to have the currency symbol not show at all, and manually add it to the detail page, but that just won't work. When I choose "don't show", it will appear to the right of the amount. The same happens, when I choose "On right".

I also deinstalled eCart 4 and installed eCart 5, but that did not change the outcome. Also restarting the computer had no effect.

Could someone help me get a space between € and amount on the detail page?

Thanks,
Roxana

I believe there is no code displaying the currency. The currency symbol comes from the ecart_object page
<?php
//WA eCart Include
require_once("WA_eCart/name_PHP.php");?>

This is the corresponding code on the eCart page
<?php
// eCart Language Pack [Ge]
$name = new name_Definition("name", 0, "&euro;&nbsp;", "", true, 2, 0, "kg", true, 3, 1, 1);
$name->cartAction = "";
$name->redirStr = "";
?>

I added the &nbsp, which works for every other page (catalogue, cart, checkout pages), but not the detail page.

I attached the detail page. This is the code displaying the price:
<label id="pricelabel"><?php echo $row_rspricetable['price']; ?></label>

this code will not add a currency symbol, unless it is in the price column of the data base, this code is just writing the value of the price form the data base to the page, there is no ecart formatting happening on it:

php:
<?php echo $row_rspricetable['price']; ?>




if you want ot use the dcart object settings to format this price us:

php:
<?php echo WA_eCart_DisplayMoney($name$row_rspricetable['price']); ?>

Problem solved

Thank you, Jason. Thanks to you I noticed, that products without version and size option didn't display any currency symbol at all. Your code fixed that.

Oddly though, for all other products the currency symbols still sticked right to the price. I found another line of code, that set the currency symbol and just added a space behind the € there.

document.getElementById('pricelabel').innerHTML=' € '+priceset;

Now everything works. Thanks!
