Tag History
- What is it?
- The NoBr tag indicates to the browser that all contents within its
boundaries will not have linebreaks inserted. This tag overrides the
default line-wrapping mechanism that is intrinsic to HTML and can yield
odd visual behavior for long runs of text.

Tips & Tricks
- DTD NOTE: The only DTD to include this
tag is the Internet Explorer 3.0 DTD - It incorrectly treats it as a
stand-alone tag even though both Netscape's original description and
observed behavior for both Internet Explorer and Netscape show it is
definitely a container tag. I have decided to treat it as a container
along the model of other character level formatting tags (like BOLD)
since there is no intrinsic modifying block behavior.
