The two are quite different. <nobr> does not stop text wrapping, just stops the enclosed piece of text from breaking - the text will still wrap, but the line will break before or after, but no inside, the enclosed text. So <nobr> is good for enclosing something like a brand name or even a date: blah blah blah <nobr>12-Dec-2003</nobr> blah ...would stop line wrapping inside the date If you know of a browser (with more than a 1% market share) that doesn't honor <nobr> please tell me as I rely on it quite a bit whenever necessary.
