Wouldn't a better conversion be from a comma to "comma-space".

In PHP, this would be:

$text = str_replace(',', ', ', $text);

or even better:

$text = preg_replace('/\,([^\s])/', ', $1', $text);

Anyone know if Internet Exploder supports ZWSP yet?

$text = preg_replace('/\,([^\s])/', ',​$1', $text);
