What Is a White Space Character?

A white space character is a character that leaves nothing on your screen. There are 4 known white space characters:

  • " " - The space character.
  • "\t" - The tab character.
  • "\n" - The new line character.
  • "\r" - The carriage return character.

White space characters are generally ignored in XHMTL documents except for element "pre" and CDATA.
