Using the CSS word-spacing property..
Locate the var marqueecontent in your code and add changes:
var marqueecontent='<nobr><font face="Arial"><span style="word-spacing:15px;">Thank you for visiting <a href="http://www.dynamicdrive.com">Dynamic Drive.</a> If you find this script useful, please consider linking to us by <a href="../link.htm">click here.</a> Enjoy your stay!</span></font></nobr>'
See if it helps :D

Hi rangana,
Your advice works here. Thanks.
Before posting I tried adding <tags.wordSpacing = 4> and </tags> on the places of your codes. It did not work.
Furthermore if for city having 2 words, e.g. New York, the words will be spaced evenly as other words. What code shall I apply instead of combining NewYork together?

--I'm not certain on wordpress, but have you tried <tags style="word-spacing:4px;">and</tags>

--Ideally, I should be industrious enough on dealing with this. I would separate NewYork from the <span>. Something like:
<span style="word-spacing:4px;">My Favorite City is</span> NewYork. <span style="word-spacing:4px;">How about yours?..</span>
Hope make some sense ;)

Your advice works for me. Thanks.

Oh sorry for not explaining clear on my late posting.
My question was supposing the complete line is only cities, say 80 cities. If some cities having 2/3 words is there a clue to link them together after space between words increased? Thanks
Edit;
Or add underscore "_" linking the words and make the underscore invisible?

If that is the case, you could shift from the word-spacing property to white-spacing property. (http://www.w3schools.com/css/pr_text_white-space.asp).
Use the pre. ;)

I still need word-spacing. Only some cities have 2/3 words

I don't see another way around than using separate <span>s.
<span style="word-spacing:4px;">My Favorite City is</span> NewYork. <span style="word-spacing:4px;">How about yours?..</span>
...or the word-spacing:pre; trick. Maybe other members can provide another alternative. ;)
