This property defines how white space in the source for the element
is handled. The normal value treats text normally,
with consecutive spaces collapsing to one. The pre
value displays multiple characters, like the
<pre> tag in HTML, except the element is not
displayed in a monospace font. nowrap prevents the
text element from wrapping unless designated by a
<br> tag.
