The URLs I tried to put in my post here didn't work. Any ideas how to fix it? I suspect it's length related.

Yup, it seems to be the length. UBB keeps re-inserting line breaks at various points each time I re-edit. Dunno a workaround.

Doesn't seem to work if you put it inside < pre > or [ code ] tags either, and it's really ugly.

UBB settings instructed to insert spaces afetr 180 symbols. Changed to 500. (Mark's longest URL was 460! )

Good job, Map.
Interestingly, Jive appears to handle this without problems, by default.
