see for yourself but you have to register and log in to see the comments.

if you do i think more than 36 characters without spacing it overflows out of the box and is chat lol how do i fix that?

The easiest thing is to not type 36 character words.

yes but others can. its got a 150 character limit but if someone wants to spam they can make it look untidy haha ):

I think you are going to find not many people are going to do this, after all, there aren't many 36 character words out there (in English at least). And spammers are using specific keywords themselves.

 

Anyways, if you really want to do this, you will need some sort of serverside language. I don't believe it's possible through CSS alone.

wordwrap()[/code] may be what you need.

 

$long_string = 'ThisIsAnUnusuallyLongStringOfWordsThatIsThrownTogether.';
echo wordwrap( $long_string, 35, "<br>\n", true);

 

Returns:

ThisIsAnUnusuallyLongStringOfWordsT
