Topic: I am ashmed..NO2.

Hi, guys. How are you?
I am ashamed to ask you but...
How can I force two words not to break into two lines.
For example, I want to show Bruce Willis on the same line not Willis on the next line.
I am looking for it on the web but not found yet.
Any help will be great.
cheers

hm.

off hand I'm not sure. There was the <nobr> tag, and the 'nowrap' attribute...not sure if they are still around. Try searching the w3c for either or both of those terms for starters...

Cheers, DL.
Many many thanks to you.
Happy Sunday.

You can use a non-breaking space to separate the two words, like so:

Bruce&amp;nbsp;Willis

Or, if you're dealing with larger amounts of text, use the CSS whitespace attribute:

white-space:nowrap;

doh!

the concept of a 'non breaking' space never quite became evident to me
thanks Slime =)

Haha, yeah, it seems we use that character so much for hacks that we forget what it's actually useful for =)

Hi, Slime. Yes, nbsp; was what I was looking for.
I was sure I could do something about it. But just couldn't remember what it was.
Many many thanks to you.
Cheers,
