It seems that in Firefox-3.5 inserting &nbsp; with javascript inserts the literal &nbsp; instead of a space. Fix this by inserting the unicode representation for &nbsp; instead.

Also fix the off-by-one error in the padding calculation that was causing one less space to be inserted than was requested by the caller.

Fixed the commit message and squashed in the off-by-one bug.
