I was taught to put one after a comma or a semicolon and two after a colon or after a sentence (after a period, an exclamation mark or a question mark). However, some applications, like WikiAnswers, automatically reduce every occurrence of two spaces to one space.

How many times do you press the spacebar after periods and colonos?

For academic papers, you should follow the appropriate style guide for your course. For example, the Modern Language Associations (MLA's) style handbook allows single spaces after periods and other terminal/concluding marks but also allows double spaces.Some punctuation marks should have no spaces following. For example, quotation marks should be neither preceded nor followed by a space, as seen in the following example:My friend said, "How are you?"Notice, however, that there is a single space after the comma in the example above. It is not a terminal/concluding mark and, according to the MLA, should always have a single space following it.Other styles include the American Psychological Association (APA) style and Chicago style. These styles have different rules concerning spaces after punctuation marks.

I recently read a Harry Potter book that placed exclamation marks mid-word This was repeated many times and was not a typo Is this correct punctuation X represents exclamation mark eg After allxs?

This is not correct pronunciation. In the English language, punctuation always comes AFTER the last word in a sentence. In other languages, sometimes punctuation such as ! and ? comes both before and after, but never in the middle of a word. As for the English language, it should always come after.

How many times do you space after a semicolon?

If the text is being displayed or printed with a normal "kerned" font, then all punctuation should be followed by a single space. Double spacing should only be used for monospaced fonts (eg Courier), but even then only for sentence-ending punctuation like question marks, exclamation points and full stops (periods). This convention dates back to the days of the typewriter, which used monospace fonts.
