{white-space: nowrap} other methods?? 1

[FesterSXS]

Hi,

I have made use of the white-space method for preventing wrapping of certain text. This is working fine in my version of IE5.5 but I need a method that will work in older versions of IE. Any ideas??

I am currently using it as follows:

...
span.nowrap {white-space: nowrap;}
</STYLE>
...
<P>One reason for heating the water is to reduce oxygen entering the boiler, with (theoretically) 0 ppm oxygen at <SPAN CLASS=nowrap>100°C.</SPAN></P>

I am trying to stop the '100°C' from appearing as:

100
°C

The browser seems to interpret the degree symbol as white-space. Tony

Hi Tony,

<nobr></nobr> is the HTML equivalent of {white-space: nowrap;}

So try thsi:
<nobr>100°C.</nobr>
