Does length of HTML source lines affect indexing / ranking?

Long lines & keywords higher on page, or maximum length?

[Mr_PHP]

Is there any maximum length of HTML source code lines - any standards created for this?
I read 80 somewhere, and PHP's wordwrap function wraps at 75 chars...

Is there any maximum for Search Engines?
Using longer lines means keywords are placed higher (higher line), which is important for SEO.
Will pages with very long HTML lines not be indexed, or less likely?

Googleguy, can you comment on this?
What's a good maximum HTML source char.width for Google?

Thanks anyone very much for any input.

White space is meaningless in HTML. You can even put your entire page on one line with no problems whatsoever for spiders or browsers. Your content needs to be nearest the beginning of the source code, not near the "top".

Thanks for the reply encyclo.

I guess I've read this might only be a problem for some browsers...

How about breaking tags when wordwrapping, such as HREF tags or IMG tags? (putting a linebreak inside an attribute or property)
Will those still be readable by browsers and by searchengines?
