RE: [WSG] long words not wrapping inside DIV
Can you send me the portion of the div that's creating the problem as by defaults words wrap once they get blank space between words , another alternative is to declare style=overflow:hidden as inline style inside the Menu div.

RE: [WSG] long words not wrapping inside DIV
On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, February 18, 2008 10:23 PM I have a dropdown menu with a width of 150px. while localization some texts are too long and it is not wrapping inside the DIV and going outside the div. Is there any way to wrap long words. I dont want to use scrollbars in the div and I cant increase the width of the DIV. As Thomas suggested, you can use word-wrap: break-word; but that won't work in all browsers. Another thing you can try is to somehow plug a wbr / element within these long words to create a soft break. It's uggly, but it works... -- Regards, Thierry | http://www.TJKDesign.com *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***

Re: [WSG] long words not wrapping inside DIV
As far as I know, control of how text wrap was introduced in CSS3: http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-text/#text-wrap All though, IE has it's own property for this http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms531186(VS.85).aspx I think you'll have to pick a different word for your localization. Out of curiosity, why can't you change the width of the drop down menu? - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: wsg@webstandardsgroup.org Sent: Tuesday, February 19, 2008 7:23 AM Subject: [WSG] long words not wrapping inside DIV HI .
