Sorry, but I don't agree.

For some languages it doesn't matter if you add additional lines.

However, for languages like VB.NET this could cause serious problems. I can already envision posts where people complain that:

Dim myPerson As New
   Person(id)

doesn't work; simply because a line break was introduced where it's not allowed.

I see three ways to fix it:

1. Ask people to format their code. I occasionally do that, with little results usually.

2. Add a <div> with overflow: auto; around the code. That way, the div gets scrollbars when the code is too wide.

3. Leave it like it is, and live with it.
