This is a documentation subpage for Template:Nowrap. It contains usage information, categories, interlanguage links and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
{{Nowrap}}
stops wrapping of specific text. It prevents word wraps (line breaks) within text or inside a link which contains spaces or hyphens ("-"). 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]] }}
Examples
"They held {{nowrap|10 kg (22 lb)}} in total. "
|
"He encountered {{nowrap|a tiger}} in the woods. "
|
Handling equal-sign or bar
Templates have problems with parameter data that contains equal-signs "=
" or vertical bars "|
" (pipes).
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 "{{!}}
". For instance, put two bars "|6|" like this:
{{nowrap||6| < 7}}
or{{nowrap|{{!}}6{{!}} < 7}}
Which renders this:
- |6| < 7
Technical details
The actual code that does the job is this HTML+CSS code:
<span style="white-space: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.
