Long URL's messing up Layout

    Is there anyway with HTML to somehow make a URL span over two lines to stop messing up the site layout?

    Not with straight HTML. You'll have to use either javascript or php (if it's available to you) or perhaps some creative CSS to manipulate the text for display.

    Thanks, I think maybe CSS is the way to go, I'll look into it.

    dcristo, no problem and good luck with it. I'm not a CSS guru myself and the brain I usually pick is on vacation this week so I can't ask her for you. I have seen CSS used in a similar fashion, I think there's a way to force text to wrap (to a new line) at a certain length and hopefully someone here can expand on that more since I've reached my CSS limit.

    Again, good luck with it,
    Scott

    Not quite sure what you mean by "messing up the site layout". Messing up how? Can you post a screenshot?
