How to create string with multiple spaces in JavaScript

In 2022 - use ES6 Template Literals for this task. If you need IE11 Support - use a transpiler.

let a = `something       something`;

Template Literals are fast, powerful, and produce cleaner code.

If you need IE11 support and you don't have transpiler, stay strong ðª and use \xa0 - it is a NO-BREAK SPACE char.

Reference from UTF-8 encoding table and Unicode characters, you can write as below:

var a = 'something' + '\xa0\xa0\xa0\xa0\xa0\xa0\xa0' + 'something';

in ES6:

let a = 'something' + ' '.repeat(10) + 'something'

old answer:

var a = 'something' + Array(10).fill('\xa0').join('') + 'something'

number inside Array(10) can be changed to needed number of spaces
