   Would it be possible to get the articles to do the same as in the comments, ie, double-space automatically be replaced by a single space? Thank you.

   Unless your article text is justified, the normal browser default behaviour is to replace double spaces with a single space.

   Sorry but I can't see any double-spacing. Perhaps I'm just not looking in the right place. Can you point me towards a specific example?

   Check "sitten kolmas__sana". Found in home.

   __ = double-space here

   It's not double spaced in FF 3.5.

    I delete double-space manually.

    The most logical answer then, is that you accidentally manually input the double-spaces.

    Yes, when i write fast. But in comments WordPress replace double-space with space. But not in article, when i published them...

    I'd like to second this. I've got a contributor who always puts double spaces in between sentences. I'd like WP to remove them when the article is published and only have one space. I was hoping there'd be a plugin that did this, but I can't find anything.

    Any ideas?

    Don't know if any of you are still having this issue or now, but I created a plugin that handles this: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/remove-double-space/

    I have the same situation where multiple contributors will use differing amounts of whitespace between sentences. This simple plugin will replace any duplicate whitespace with a single space.

    Let me know if this works for you, and if you run across any issues or new features you would like to see.
