How to prevent a line break in a html link ?

Question

that is, a whole html link, must be in line1 or line 2. not in two lines.

Answer 1

You can use <a><nobr>link</nobr></a>

Please note: This will work but is not officially supported by the W3C spec.

Answer 2

Using CSS:

a {
    white-space: nowrap;
}

This will prevent line breaks in any A tags.

Answer 3

According to this post:

NOBR Tag not suppored by W3C. So use the alternative tag for it. Instead of giving NOBR tag give the tag as style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap".

So that would mean you should say:

<a style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap">link</a>

Or even better, put it inside your CSS:

a { WHITE-SPACE: nowrap; }
