How can I avoid broken hyperlinks?

[Walter R.]

I am using FP 2003. When I make a hyperlink to another page in my web, the
link sometimes gets "broken" (spread over two lines). How can I tell FP
never to break hyperlinks?

I went to Tools > Page Options (and also Options). Cannot find the answer.

Thanks

Tools->Page Options - Code Formatting
Clear the box "Allow line breaks within tags"

If, however, you mean that a link should always appear in a browser
as, for example
Microsoft FrontPage

and not
Microsoft
FrontPage

then code the text with non-breaking elements in code view:
<a href="somepage.htm>Microsoft& nbsp;FrontPage</a>
(There should not be a space between & and n. I have placed one there
because this newsgroup will render it as a space character otherwise).
Do not use a hyphen in the link text - IE will use this to wrap the
text.

There is also the CSS white-space attribute:
<span style="white-space:nowrap;"><a href="somepage.htm>Microsoft
FrontPage</a></span>
but this is not supported in some browsers, (IE5, for example).

Unfortunately you can't (except in code view)
- FP will split it if you use a br tag in it
