HTML line spacing

Question

This is a problem I have had for a long time and although it seems like a small thing my ocd will never let it go.

the basic question has to do with the HTML code itself. Is it at possible to have a line of code go onto a new line but still have it read in as though it were on a single line.

for example

<div id="content">
   <img src="www.this_link_url_is_way_too_goddamn_long_to_be_one_one_goddamn_line_so_it_needs_to_be_split_onto_two_goddamn_lines.com"/>
</div>

into

<div id="content">
   <img src="www.this_link_url_is_way_too_goddamn
   long_to_be_one_one_goddamn_line_so_it_needs
   _to_be_split_onto_two_goddamn_lines.com"/>
</div>

No. Whitespace, in this context, is significant.

Try using an editor that will word wrap lines.

That was the answer I was afraid of, I'm happy with my current editor (notepad++). Thanks a bunch though – TheLovelySausage May 22 '14 at 14:32

This mostly depends on your window size and screen resolution. And your text editor as well.
