I think it looks as good as it could look, considering that it can't split that long line in two in any sensible way.
At least it doesn't mess up anything else then that exact post, seen many forums behave a lot worse on long unsplittable lines.

Yes of course there are worse, but I feel, that shouldn't stop from continuous improvement if you can
This doesn't happen in most posts, but there is an occasional odd post here and there where the frame where the posters details are, isn't consistent. With or without it, the content is more important, but of course if it can be set right..then..well..guess it should be tried

Well the reason is the long line.
Usually they happen because of people pasting links. (hard to make one word with that many characters otherwise)
One solution would be to abbreviate the link, but still link to the same place, I've seen some use this.
For example so the "http://www.someplace.net/a/very/long/and/complicated/path.html" is viewed as "http://www.someplace.net/.../path.html"

I agree. But if the poster fails to abbreviate, any way in which the website handles this would be a great feature to have

I meant that the forum should do the abbreviation automatically ofcourse
It is still not a general solution to the problem, but it would solve it for long links at least (which probably is the most common case)

looking into a few threads, your solution seems pretty general really..and very practical. Thanks
