preserving whitespace between controls

How can I output whitespace in the html output?
I need this just to separate between controls

in Stylesheet I wrote:

<input type="submit" value="Button1"/> &nbsp; <input type="reset"
value="Button2"/>

but this doesn't works

if I put another character for ex: '_' it displayed on the screen correctly
