Awesome. Thank you, Sebastien.
I prefer the second solution, because it allows me to account for different kinds of spaces: espace fine, espace insécable, espace moyenne, etc.
Just for curiosity: I’m not sure what to make of the regexp. The ‘?’ is normally a postfix operator used in conjunction with other characters, isn’t it? As it is, it seems to target question marks instead of blank spaces. What am I missing?

It seems to be a character encoding problem: it was supposed to be
a real "nbsp" char (00A0, IIRC).
It's clearly NOT intended to be a "?". I don't know how this got badly
converted in these posts.
