long/certain http links broken
Status: Beta
Brought to you by:

When rendering certain links the underlying HTML seems
broken. For example:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-
1/books/handbook/security.html
displays correctly but is tagged as:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-
1/books/handb<wbr>ook/security.html
[note the <wbr> tag embedded in the URL]
Additionally, this link, when included in a Perki Page,
breaks RenderHTML all together, causing an internal
error message to be displayed on screen:

The <wbr> tag is not wholly legitimate, since it's not in
any w3c spec. I was gunning on the possibility that nobody
used a browser that didn't support it, but apparently it's
not uncommon. I'll weed that out.

I wasn't able to reproduce the crash Internal Error, but
there was definitely a problem with the way links are
rendered. I've removed some advanced cosmetic features that
were conspiring to cause the problem.
