<mspace>

The MathML <mspace> element is used to display a blank space, whose size is set by its attributes.

Attributes

class, id, style: Provided for use with stylesheets.
depth: The desired depth (below the baseline) of the space (see length for values and units).
height: The desired height (above the baseline) of the space (see length for values and units).
linebreak: Indicates a line-break at the space. Possible values: auto (default value), newline, nobreak, goodbreak, badbreak.
Starting with MathML 3, it is preferred to use <mo> to control linebreaking.
mathbackground: The background color. You can use #rgb, #rrggbb and HTML color names.
width: The desired width of the space (see length for values and units).

Note that some common attributes like mathcolor, mathvariant or dir have no effect on <mspace>.
