Bash Scripting :: Inode And Directory Size Counter

I'm writing an inode and directory size counter, but hit a snag with directories that contain a space.

Simple code, finds all directories within a folder, sets the current directory:

for i in `find . -type d`; do ls $i; done

Looks correct? It works great, until you hit directories with spaces. So I try the following methods:

for i in `find . -type d|sed 's/ / /g'`; do ls $i; done
for i in `find . -type d|sed 's/ / /g'`; do ls "$i"; done

What is happening is, at the ( for i in ), it treats each item at the first break, if its
or a ' '. Is there a flag I can set to make it only use
? When I pipe the data, it sends each chunk of the directory through.

[root@home /home/mindbend/dev_html]# for i in `find . -type d|sed 's/ / /g'`; do ls $i; done

ls: ./test: No such file or directory
ls: ing: No such file or directory
ls: 12: No such file or directory
ls: 3: No such file or directory
ls: ./test: No such file or directory
ls: ing: No such file or directory
ls: 12: No such file or directory
ls: 3/test: No such file or directory
ls: 2: No such file or directory

# ls -d test ing 12 3/
test ing 12 3/

#ls -d test ing 12 3/test 2/
test ing 12 3/test 2/
