    How do u insert a literal such as   in a DOM textnode using javascript?

    In this code:

    var sp1_sup = document.createElement("sup");
    var sp1_suffix = document.createTextNode(" (" + zno + ")" );
    sp1_sup.appendChild(sp1_suffix );

    the literal string is printed.. how do I get the textnode to recognize the no break space

    Why are you adding parenthesis ?. And what's the value of zno
    Anyway, if I understood you correctly, you can try with HTML entities:
    $#32; or $nbsp; (replace '$' by '&').
