(just btw, I discovered that iCab breaks the line after // in the

It does that even when the viewport is wide enough to fit everything
without any linebreaks? That is odd.


Indeed it is. No, space was not the issue at all. I can open

in iCab full wide on my desktop which is 3,776 px wide and it
still wraps after the "//" !

But I have just this mo taken a further look and I notice it does
_not_ wrap under some text size clicks... (nothing to do with
available browser width). And investigating closer (I have a huge
range of text size clicks available on iCab) it appears that it
is in the minority (3 or 4 in about 14) that it wraps. So I
guess, it wraps most of the time. I might write to the icab
maker about this (he is very clever and cluey about CSS and will
probably shed light on it considering some of his past replies to
me.)

Well let us know if there is any rationale to it. It looks like it's
just a bug.

It might be trying to make the two table columns similar widths but
there's no reason to do that-- you haven't set td { width: 50%; } or
anything.

I guess, writing this on a Sunday morning, looks bad. I mean, it
is not like it is the most important investigation a being can
make. One of my most riveting, in a previous slow period of life,
was The Desert:

Did you mean a different URL?
