There are 2 solutions below :-

1. txt="<pre>    </pre>"+v.text();


2. txt="<span style='margin-left:15px'></span>"+v.text();

A solution is to fill the spaces with &nbsp; entities, but if you have to achieve this effect just for styling/visualization purpose, then wrap that line in a proper tag and use some CSS instead (e.g. text-indent property)

if you have to indent text inside a select (as I guess reading your previous answer) you may want to wrap your options inside an optgroup element (and give it some padding)

Try :

 txt="&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"+v.text();

The other good solution would be to use div with some style set on it.

 <div style='margin-left:15px' id='main_text'></div>

You could use jQuery to place txt in the div.

     txt= v.text();
     $('#main_text').html(txt);
