| Hello -
Can anyone tell me what the <nobr> command name implies?
It seems to be generated in the navigation menu at the
bottom of my webpages. It doesn't appear in the code in
FP, but does appear when you view the source from the
published webpage itself.
Thanks,
Bruce

| The <nobr>..</nobr> sequence is used by FrontPage in its navigation bars to
prevent the text forming the hyperlink from wrapping.
Another example: the text in the phrase <nobr>This is a few words</nobr>
will always be on the same line, if necessary expanding the page to
accommodate it.

| Hey Ron -
Thanks for the answer...
As a followup...When I view my webpages in IE, the
navigation is centered and is fine, as I center it within
a table. BUT, when I view it in mozilla, it's doesn't
center and continues across the page...
Any thoughts on this as how to fix or "standardize" this...
If you have mozilla, view:
www.athleticamps.com in both browsers and you will see
what I mean...
Thanks!!
Bruce

| Mozilla gets it right, IE is broken.
IE seems to be using the pipe character "|" as whitespace, allowing the text
to wrap, whereas Mozilla correctly treats the "|" as a hard character, with
the same attributes as any other visible character. (IE also gets the
hyphen wrong, allowing text to wrap at a hyphen.) In HTML text should only
wrap at whitespace characters - spaces, carriage returns, tabs etc.
To fix: I would consider using three custom link bars, or if the
navigation is fixed (not likely to change) modify the nav bar in a text
editor (Notepad) removing the Webbot comments and breaking the bar at
appropriate places.

| Ron -
THANKS.
Fixed it by deleting the old structure and add 3
customized toolbars.
