my usage of perl is almost entirely for web-development, so i have a lot of experience w/compatability issues etc. - but to sum up... BUT... when it comes down to answering your question, those things are irrelevant. AFAIK, browsers will not chop up your long strings - unless they reach some arbitrary limit, that the browser sets for max. widths of pages - which could be thousands of characters. This problem is quite common w/people posting huge links and messing up your nicely designed webpages. :-P What i do is what frodo72 touched on. I first dice large strings into arrays. (Which we don't have to do here, since you already have the data in @cut). Then, i'd do something like this...
If you don't explicity put in the optional break <WBR> or definitive break <BR>, browsers usually will not take it upon themselves to do it for you.
