11-28 XPViewer on WinNT: Goto nasa.gov and scroll all the way down to the bottom. Beneath "Other Cool NASA related sites" there are a bunch of helpful links. They are listed all in a row. What should really happen is after the 'Nasa Televison' link the links should wrap around and start a new line. This is what makes this page so wide when it shouldn't be. If you view the page source I believe the problem revolves around the way we are interpeting the series of <NOBR> tags that are used to make this list. Maybe they are being treated as nested within each other instead of taken in series?

The problem on this page is that the page attempts to use nested NOBR tags (a bug actually); Navigator doesn't support nesting of NOBR; I think the parser should treat it like nested P tags (though it's not a block tag!)
