If the student types his answer directly in the cloze question, short answer sub-question provided field, then it is impossible for him to type a non-breaking space.

Even if - for some strange reason - the student were to type his answer first in a word processor such as MS Word, to press Ctrl-Shift-Space in order to insert a non-breaking space, then copy that text and paste it into the Moodle Cloze question answer field, the non-breaking space would be automatically replaced with a normal space.

PS.- On the subject of the non-breaking space, I am sorry to see that it is considered by many as a "fancy", un-necessary character. Strict observance of French typography standards requires that double punctuation marks ( ; : ! ? ) be separated from previous text by a non-breaking space. The non-breaking space is really needed when typing French...

This is already the case in Moodle 1.6 and further versions. I specifically added this display myself ... some time ago. However, I do not see the point of making the initial text appear below the student's response.

PS.- Moodle 1.5 is really an old version by now!

Bonjour Jean,

Ne pas confondre:

• CVS = Concurrent Versions System (open source software)
• CSV = Comma Separated Value(s) (database export/import format and file extension)

En effet, Excel prétend exporter une feuille au format CSV, qui implique l'usage de la virgule comme séparateur, mais en fait il utilise le point-virgule. On peut modifier ça dans les paramètres de Windows (voir copie d'écran jointe) en remplaçant le ; par défaut par la virgule. Mais attention! à ce moment-là il faut saisir les formules dans Excel avec la virgule au lieu du point-virgule comme séparateur... Pas très pratique.

En revanche, Open Office propose, au moment de l'export d'un tableau en CSV, le choix du séparateur. Voir ci-dessous.

This seems to be a growing request from Quiz users. See my answer in this post.
