FaT3oYCG Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 If a string is very long then the browser will put the next words on a new line, do you know of any word that is 520 characters long?

Cooper94 Posted November 22, 2009 Author Share Posted November 22, 2009 The overflow wored but it just earses it after it reaches that point. Is it possible to have it go to another line and continue the text?

FaT3oYCG Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 You would have to create your own function to put line breaks in. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/182471-div-width/#findComment-963183 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcombs_31 Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Why not just try using real data, what are the chances you will have a string that long with no space? Otherwise you have to do as FaT3oYCG said and create a string function to break it up after so many characters.
