[PHP] setting word wrap
Hi guys i wonder if someone could help me with this. http://thor.ancilenetworks.co.uk/~pferrie/vin/php/adm/ If you select table reviews and the press view database u will see that the text goes whey out to the right of the page making the bottom scrollbar kickin, this is not good. When i add a new record i have to press RETURN in a multi line text field for it to wrap in the data being sumbitted. I thought i could set the table width wich would make the text wrap, but as u can see this is not the case. Can anyone give me any help with this? cheers Paul -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] setting word wrap
Paul What you have entered there is not normal sentence structure. Since none of your characters have spaces between them, the browser has noplace to break into the next line. Try typing normal sentences including spaces and you will see that the browser will break at or near the right edge, depending on the size of the words. Even if you hyphenate a long word, the browser will have something to wrap. Also, change tr width=100% bgcolor=#66tdtesting/td TO tr bgcolor=#66td width=95%testing/td That will help define the margins.
