While you can use <br /> tags, there is another way to achieve similar results: the or non-breaking space entity. Put one of them between two words and you stop them getting separated by a line break; I have been using this in the latest design tweaks that I made to my online photo gallery. Turning this on its head, if you see two words together acting without regard to normal wrapping conventions, then you can suspect that a non-breaking space could be a cause. There might be CSS options too but their effectiveness in different browsers may limit their usefulness.
