Hi..

I'm having some trouble with the component.

When someone uses the code box, the message floats out of the template..
Take a look: www.football-supporter.net/index.php?opt...mp;id=21&catid=2
Go to page 2. It's the same in all topics..

I have tried to make the .code css fixed with 400px, then the code input floats out of the code box..

How can I fix this?

TanX!

You could try adding the attribute "word-break: value" to the .code css.

No go... Didn't solve my problem..

Any other ideas?

How about the overflow attribute?

www.w3schools.com/css/pr_pos_overflow.asp

nope... I made two test subjects
www.football-supporter.net/index.php?opt...mp;id=36&catid=2
and
www.football-supporter.net/index.php?opt...mp;id=38&catid=2

In both, the writing is done without hitting return/enter key.


Still the same.. Have been playing around some with the template css file now, and have fixed everything but this damn overflow error.. LoL..

Tanx for all the help so far..

Try adding "overflow: auto" to "div.msgtext pre". You may need to play with the width attribute as well.

The problem with this scenario is that the "PRE" tag is design specifically NOT to change anything and adheare to PRE-existing formatting. Therefore if the formatting doesn't wrap in the source, it is designed to maintain that non-wrapping format.

TanX..

Worked out after playing around with the css file a bit.

[code:1]div.msgtext pre
{
border-left: 5px solid #F4A94F;
border-right: 1px solid #CCC;
border-top: 1px solid #CCC;
border-bottom: 1px solid #CCC;
overflow: scroll;
width: 550px;
}
div.msgtext code
{

font-family: "Courier News", monospace;
line-height: 1.5;
margin: 5px 0pt 15px;
padding: 10px 15px;
}[/code:1]


Weird why it have to be scrolled, should be able to make it fixed width, with text inside autocropping...

As I said, the "Pre" tag is intended NOT to wrap. This is to preserve code like certain javascript, which must stay on the same line to work, from getting screwed up.

Done and done Didn't get the meaning of that until just now... Tanx m8..
