Okie, this is inconsistent.. why did it preserve the url above (initially),

Because the URL there wasn't broken across lines.


but break this one: <http://www.lugnet.com/loc/ca/on/tor/?n=46> right at the
line-break????

Because the URL there was broken across lines.

Um :) Okay, I guess I can rephrase my question as, how do you avoid breaking a
URL across lines? I don't recall doing anything different for the two posts
mentioned, except with the 'titanic' URL, I expected it to stay together, and
with the one last night, I expected it to broken. I've been caught out by this
a few other times as well!

Still confused,
Richard

(...) I might be on(to) something.. (URL) When I try the long-urls in Linux NN, they don't break.. but in my copy of Windows 98, both NN and MSIE break the urls horridly :( Richard (25 years ago, 14-Apr-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) I avoid it by composing messages in a text editor which doesn't break words across 80-column boundaries. (Or in Netscape Navigator, which doesn't break them either.) --Todd (25 years ago, 14-Apr-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
