Sorry, my only example is an internal web site, but when URLs are placed
directly within a table cell, it won't wrap.  This is a problem since it forces
the browser to display a horizontal scroll bar rather than keep a table onscreen
and wrap the URL.  IE does not do this.  It seems as though the text wrapping
algorithms are expecting a space or some other delimeter, but don't know how to
wrap things like long URLs.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.



Expected Results:  
They should have picked a "/" or HTTP parameter delimeter such as "&", "=", or
"?" as a delimeter when line-breaking apart a URL.
