Hi,

If you create a link for example:

<A HREF="CUSTOMVAR:LINK">CUSTOMVAR:TEXT</A>

Then for example you fill in the LINK in Actinic with page.html. Then for example you fill in the TEXT in Actinic with Visit this page

How can you make it look like:

Visit this
page

Because when you insert a line break into the custom property using <BR> then it creates the link text "Link text<BR>here" and the search engines would pick that up as one word and not seperate keywords?. Any help appreciated.

Hi Louise

You would be faced with this problem even if you weren't using customvars and were hardcoding the template with the link.

If you use "Link text <BR> here", with spaces either side of the <BR>, the appearance of the link text doesn't change and you separate the words.

My problem is I have a table cell with the CUSTOMVAR link in it and we want to be able to control where the links wrap. I cannot fix the width of the table cell to make the link wrap where we want it to because as a CUSTOMVAR, the size of the link is changeable and so the size of the cells need to be changeable.

So I guess the only way to make it wrap where we want it to is to use the <BR> as below

<A HREF="page.html">Link text <BR> here</A>

At least then it seperates the keywords for the search engines. Thanks.
