How can I stop text from wrapping in a browser?

Try using the HTML <pre> tags.  Anything between them will be shown in
the browser with the exact formatting (including line breaks) that you
specify.
If you want something in the middle of a sentence to be nonwrappable 
then use &nsbp; instead of a space.
A Netscape/IE specific tag is <nobr>, this will let you make a whole 
sentence be nonwrappable, beware though this isn't in the HTML4 
standard (should work anyway). 
<?php
  echo "<pre>This won't wrap...</pre>";
  echo "This won't wrap
  echo "<nobr>This won't wrap</nobr>
?>
