English term or phrase: whitespace character
Definition from Robin Lionheart:
Characters in a document that are considered to separate words. In HTML 4.0, ASCII space characters, line breaks, tabs, form feeds, and zero‐width spaces are white space characters. One or more of these characters in the source document mark the end of one word and the beginning of another.

Example sentence(s):
  • When rendered, a whitespace character does not correspond to a visual mark, but typically does occupy an area on a page. As is common in technical literature, the two words "white space" have found widespread usage as the single term "whitespace", especially when used as an adjective, as in "whitespace character". Wikipedia
  • Preprocessor directives must appear as the first non-whitespace character on a line eggheadcafe.com
  • You can only filter nodes that contain only whitespace. In a text node that contains any non-whitespace characters, whitespace is considered significant, and is always displayed. IBM Corporation

blanktecken


Definition from Computer Sweden :
Gemensamt ord för mellanslag, tabbar, blankrad, indrag, fyrkant och annat som blir tomma ytor på papperet eller på bildskärm.

Example sentence(s):
  • Wikipedia använder normalt sett inte blanktecken vid formatering av artiklar, många blanktecken i rad är därför ett tecken på att något kan vara fel. - Wikipedia  
  • Predikatet tar en sträng som argument och ger en sträng där alla specialtecken (alla tecken förutom blanktecken och vanliga bokstäver) är borttagna. - Chalmers
