Dependent upon where the string is broken, it is possible to fix it. If it has broken at the tuning peg, chances are you'll have to replace it unless, there is enough string on the "long" side of the break to wind around the tuning post. If the string has broken near the bridge, you can take the string out, feed the broken end through the hole in the middle of the ball-end as so: (broken end) (ball-end)
----------------------------- >> O
| (bit of broken string still attached)
Then, you must double back the string and twist it until the ball-end is securely fastened in the "noose" you have made with the string. Rewind the string onto the guitar, and assuming you had enough string to perform this operation, it should work fine.
