bboy_mn:

I just noticed that for the first time in the few years I've been
here, my long web links actually worked. 

The secret to getting a link longer than the right margin to work is
to UNCHECK the box next to '[]Wrap Message Text' that is found just
above the SEND button when you are composing a new message. 

This won't stop the text from wrapping at the margin when viewed as a
post on the screen but it will stop Yahoo from inserting a Carriage
Return at the end of each line where the text wraps. With no Carriage
Return, the link becomes continuous unbroken text, and with the text
unbroken, the link also is unbroken. 

So, if you are posting a web link that is longer than the rigth
margin, remember to UNcheck the '[]Wrap Message Text' box before you
SEND the message. 

If you are using an email program, you will also have the option
somewhere in the program to tell the it not to wrap long lines.

Just a thought.
