{{tlx|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===
:: <code><nowiki>{{nowrap|these words stay together}}</nowiki></code>
:: <code><nowiki>{{nowrap|a, b, c, or d.}}</nowiki></code>
:: <code><nowiki>{{nowrap| merry-go-round }}</nowiki></code>
:: <code><nowiki>{{nowrap| [[4-part harmony]] }}</nowiki></code>
:: <code><nowiki>{{nowrap| [[Cascading Style Sheets|CSS]] }}</nowiki></code>
:: <code><nowiki>{{nowrap| [[#Examples|Examples section]] }}</nowiki></code>
The template names {{[[Template:j|'''j''']]}} (join) or {{[[Template:nobr|nobr]]}} or {{[[Template:Nobreak|nobreak]]}} may be used instead of "nowrap", as they are redirects to {{tld|nowrap}}.
=== Examples ===
{| class=wikitable
|"<code>They held <nowiki>{{nowrap|10 kg (22 lb)}}</nowiki> in total.</code>"
<br/>May render like this:
:They held {{nowrap|10 kg (22 lb)}}<br/>in total.
<br/>Or like this:
:They held<br>10 kg (22 lb) in total.
<br/>But ''not'' render like this:
:They held 10 kg (22 <br/>lb) in total.
| "<code>He encountered <nowiki>{{nowrap|a tiger}}</nowiki> in the woods.</code>"
<br/>May render like this:
:He encountered a tiger<br/>in the woods.
<br/>Or like this:
:He encountered<br/>a tiger in the woods.
<br/>But ''not'' like this:
:He encountered a<br/>tiger in the woods.

=== Handling equal-sign or bar ===
[[Help:Template|Templates]] have problems with parameter data that contains [[equal-sign]]s "<code>=</code>" or vertical bars "<code>|</code>" (pipes). Note that this does not apply if the equal-sign "<code>=</code>" or vertical bar "<code>|</code>" is inside a wikilink or another template. In the case that there is a bare equal-sign "<code>=</code>" or vertical bar "<code>|</code>", consider using {{tl|nowrap begin}} + {{tl|nowrap end}} instead. However, there are also other workarounds:
For text that includes an equal-sign "=", precede the text with <code>1=</code>, use a triple-brace unnamed parameter <code><nowiki>{{{|=}}}</nowiki></code>, or the <code><nowiki>{{=}}</nowiki></code> template. For example:
:<code><nowiki>{{nowrap|</nowiki>1=2 + 2 = 4}}</code>, <br /><code><nowiki>{{nowrap|2 + 2 {{{|=}}} 4}}</nowiki></code>, or <br /><code><nowiki>{{nowrap|2 + 2 {{=}} 4}}</nowiki></code>
which all render as this:
:{{nowrap|1=2 + 2 = 4}}.
For text that includes a vertical bar "|", escape the bar(s) with "<code><nowiki>&#124;</nowiki></code>" or "<code><nowiki>{{!}}</nowiki></code>". For instance, put two bars "|6|" like this:
:<code><nowiki>{{nowrap|</nowiki>&#124;6&#124; < 7}}</code> or <code><nowiki>{{nowrap|{{!}}6{{!}} < 7}}</nowiki></code>
Which renders this:
:{{nowrap||6| < 7}}
=== Technical details ===
The actual code that does the job is this HTML+CSS code:
:<code><nowiki><span style="white-space:nowrap">This text will not wrap</span></nowiki></code>
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 {{[[Template:j|j]]}}, {{[[Template:nobr|nobr]]}} and {{[[Template:Nobreak|nobreak]]}} redirect here.
