This is the साँचा:tl template. This template prevents word wraps (line breaks) in text and links with spaces in. It is designed to handle the really tricky wrapping cases where you need full control. It works similarly to साँचा:tl and साँचा:tl. This template takes no parameters, instead it works in pair with साँचा:tl.

Helper templates

This template has a number of helper templates which allows you to tell the web browser exactly where line breaks may occur:

Note! These helper templates may only be used in sections surrounded by साँचा:tl and साँचा:tl or they may cause weird behaviour of your page.

Usage

{{nowrap begin}}

[[Salt]] and{{wrap}} [[Pepper]] and{{wrap}} [[Curry]]
and{{wrap}} [[Saffron]].{{wrap}}
[[Salt]] and{{wrap}} [[Pepper]] and{{wrap}} [[Curry]]
and{{wrap}} [[Saffron]].

{{nowrap end}}

It will render something like this:

Salt and Pepper and Curry and
Saffron. Salt and Pepper and
Curry and Saffron.

But it will not render like this:

Salt and Pepper and Curry
and Saffron. Salt and Pepper
and Curry and Saffron.

To make your code readable and easy to edit, you can put each wrappable "line" on its own line. And let's use some dots too. Like this:

{{nowrap begin}}

[[Salt]] and [[Pepper]]{{·wrap}}
[[Pepper]] and [[Curry]]{{·wrap}}
[[Curry]] and [[Saffron]]{{·wrap}}
[[Saffron]] and [[Salt]]

{{nowrap end}}

It will render something like this:

Salt and Pepper · Pepper and Curry ·
Curry and Saffron · Saffron and Salt

But it will not render like this:

Salt and Pepper · Pepper
and Curry · Curry and Saffron
· Saffron and Salt

Examples

Here are the above examples in actual running code in a table. Try dragging the width of your web browser window so it becomes smaller and smaller and watch how the line wrapping behaves:

साँचा:nowrap begin Salt andसाँचा:wrap Pepper andसाँचा:wrap Curry andसाँचा:wrap Saffron.साँचा:wrap Salt andसाँचा:wrap Pepper andसाँचा:wrap Curry andसाँचा:wrap Saffron. साँचा:nowrap end

साँचा:nowrap begin Salt and Pepper · Pepper and Curry · Curry and Saffron · Saffron and Salt साँचा:nowrap end

An example demonstrating all the helper templates:

साँचा:nowrap begin Saltसाँचा:wrap Pepperसाँचा:wrap Curry · Saffron · Salt • Pepper • Curry – Saffron – Saltसाँचा:!wrap Pepperसाँचा:!wrap Curry · Saffron · Salt साँचा:nowrap end

साँचा:nowrap begin Saltसाँचा:wrap Pepperसाँचा:wrap Curry · Saffron · Salt • Pepper • Curry – Saffron – Saltसाँचा:!wrap Pepperसाँचा:!wrap Curry · Saffron · Salt साँचा:nowrap end

Technical details

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

<span style="white-space:nowrap;"> Text and links </span> <span style="white-space:nowrap;"> More text and links </span>

It means that wraps may only happen in the unprotected space between the </span> and the <span ...>. That's what साँचा:tl and its helper templates are packaging in an easy to use way.

साँचा:tl and the other helper templates should not have any spaces or newlines before them or they will render two spaces before the dot. They tolerate anything from no to several spaces and even a newline after them and they will still only render one space after the dot. If a wrap occurs then the wrap will come after the dot, even if there are spaces before the helper template.

The साँचा:tl causes problems if inside sections of bolded and/or italicised text. Do end the bold text before the साँचा:tl and continue the bold text after it to avoid the problems. साँचा:tl and the other helper templates only have this problem if the section is bolded and italicised at the same time.
