Why are my sentences being pushed into two rows of text from one??

I have my site up and I am editing it to finish it. I noticed that on one
page when I open it online on IE6, If I have a long line of text, Like,
(woodworkers wharehouse New York city new york xxxxxyyyyyzzzz) all in one
line like an address All properly spaced. I can open the favorites folder,
which opens on the left side of the screen. At that point all the text pushes
into two lines from the one that it was in. Can any one tell me how to stop
this from happening.
 
I would think that when the page narrows due to the favorites folder on the
left, the text is automatically wrapping

Why not control the wrap yourself
e.g.
woodworkers wharehouse<br>New York city<br>new york<br>xxxxxyyyyyzzzz

This will display as:

woodworkers wharehouse
New York city
new york
xxxxxyyyyyzzzz

Hi trevor Thanks for getting back quick, The problem is I have an address on
the top of the site with a ton of room for it, it reads like
visit our other business, woodworkers wharehouse 2541 S.10Th. Street New
York NY zip When viewed at 1024 resolution it's fine butopen the
favorites folder on the right side, and it looks like this

visit our other business, woodworkers wharehouse 2541 S.10Th
Street New York NY zip
its all over the place I do not want to put it on in three lines, just one
across the top.
I think I just figured out why it is doing this, I did not put it in to a
table just copied it as text onto the background. I will try the table should
work. Thanks again

also if you copied it the original may have spaces to format the text...check for that and remove them.

also remove the extra h from warehouse.

That did not work either I put a table in, put the text in saved it looked at
it online and it went into two rows so I made some coloums to try putting it
in that way and had the table at 100 percent it worked that way but the text
that was not bothered by it before was now in two or more lines down further
on the page. This is goofy I have to find out about absolute positioning, I
think thats going be the answer.
