Hi all , I have the following Css file :- In one of my jsps, i have the following column style="word-break: break-all;" this is not behaving properly .. This line is not breaking the word at all for 1)abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzabcdefghijklmnopqrst uv 2)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"""""""""""!!!!!::::::::::::::: If it is only alphabets , it is able to break .. but when everything is special characters it does not break ... When one does not break , it leads to the distortion of the whole table .. Is there any way to ensure that the names break properly .. Thanks in advance |

Substitute the special characters with their code equivalents from here:- http://www.tedmontgomery.com/tutorial/HTMLchrc.html and they may (should) be treated as normal alphabet characters. ---------------------------------------- Code downloaded to my PC will be deleted in due course. WIN XP SP3; IE7, Firefox 3.0, Opera and Safari for Windows; screen resolution usually 1024x768. IE6 on W98 with 800*600. |

Another possible solution for you, if you don't mind if the text overflows but you just don't want to comprimise your layout (you don't want your table to expand to fit), then just give your table the rule table-layout:fixed. And then for IE give the inner elements position relative (otherwise IE clips it), and then all the text will just flow out without expanding your layout. ---------------------------------------- Eric :~) Knowledge is Power |
