टेम्पलेट:Nowrap/doc

{{nowrap}} stops wrapping of specific text. It prevents word wraps (line breaks) within text or inside a link which contains spaces, hyphens ("-"), or, in some browsers, parentheses. The size of the nowrapped text becomes the minimum width of that paragraph. Before you use this template you might want to read up on Wikipedia:Line-break handling.

Usage

{{nowrap|these words stay together}}

{{nowrap|a, b, c, or d.}}

{{nowrap| merry-go-round }}

{{nowrap| [[4-part harmony]] }}

{{nowrap| [[Cascading Style Sheets|CSS]] }}

{{nowrap| [[#Examples|Examples section]] }}

The template names {{nobr}} and {{nobreak}} are redirects that may be used instead of "{{nowrap|…}}".

उदाहरण

"They held {{nowrap|10 kg (22 lb)}} in total." May render like this: They held 10 kg (22 lb) in total. Or like this: They held 10 kg (22 lb) in total. But not render like this: They held 10 kg (22 lb) in total.

"He encountered {{nowrap|a tiger}} in the woods." May render like this: He encountered a tiger in the woods. Or like this: He encountered a tiger in the woods. But not like this: He encountered a tiger in the woods.

Controlling line-breaking in infoboxes

This template may be used with {{wbr}} and {{nbsp}} to control line-breaking in bulletless lists in infoboxes, to prevent wrapped long entries from being confused with multiple entries. See Template:Wbr/doc#Controlling line-breaking in infoboxes for details.

Handling equal-sign or bar

Templates have problems with parameter data that contains equal-signs "=" or vertical bars "|" (pipes). Note that this does not apply if the equal-sign "=" or vertical bar "|" is inside a wikilink or another template. In the case that there is a bare equal-sign "=" or vertical bar "|", consider using {{nowrap begin}} + {{nowrap end}} instead. However, there are also other workarounds:

For text that includes an equal-sign "=", precede the text with 1=, use a triple-brace unnamed parameter {{{|=}}}, or the {{=}} template. For example:

{{nowrap|1=2 + 2 = 4}},
{{nowrap|2 + 2 {{{|=}}} 4}}, or
{{nowrap|2 + 2 {{=}} 4}}

which all render as this:

2 + 2 = 4.

For text that includes a vertical bar "|", escape the bar(s) with "|" or "{{pipe}}" or "{{abs}}". For instance, put two bars "|6|" like this:

{{nowrap|&#124;6&#124; < 7}}  or  {{nowrap|{{pipe}}6{{pipe}} < 7}}  or  {{nowrap|{{abs|6}} < 7}}

Which renders this:

|6| < 7

Technical details

The actual code that does the job is this HTML+CSS code:

<span class="nowrap">This text will not wrap</span>

Spaces at the beginning or end of the text will fall outside the no-wrap tag in the rendered text due to Wikimedia rendering mechanisms.

The templates {{nobr}} and {{nobreak}} redirect here.

• {{nowraplinks}}...{{nowraplinks end}} prevents wraps inside links while allowing wraps between links and in normal text. Very useful for link lists and easy to use.
• {{nowrap begin}}...{{nowrap end}} prevents wraps in both text and links. For the trickier wrapping cases when you need full control, for instance in very complex link lists.
• {{spaces}} to produce multiple non-breaking spaces (or a single one).
• Wikipedia:Line-break handling, the how-to guide about word/line-wrapping/breaks at Wikipedia.
  • In particular, to avoid line wrapping when quoting a passage such as a poem or computer code, see {{Quote#Line breaks}} - e.g. Template:Blockquote with "poem" tag.
