HTML Quickie: Long String Overflowing Your Div

Do you have that problem? I do.

EDIT(05/31/2009): Even better solutions:

Hyphenator.js: http://code.google.com/p/hyphenator/

OR:

General CSS solution:

overflow: scroll

/EDIT

The HTML solution:

use <wbr>. (But you have to figure out yourself where to put the tag)

The IE-specific CSS solution:

word-wrap: break-word

PHP solution:

wordwrap(‘your_very_long_string_here’, 15) // Break after 15 characters

Python solution:

import textwrap

textwrap.fill(‘your_very_long_string_here’, 15) # Break after 15 characters

Gotapi.com: Finding documentation has never been so easy

For readers and all fellow developers: Finding documentation has become less of a pain. Thanks to Gotapi.

Currently they have:

• HTML/CSS/Javascript. Too bad they don’t have MSDN Javascript.
• Javascript UI libraries.
• XML
• C/C++ libraries.
• PHP
• Ruby on Rails
• Python (Reading from blog.gotapi, Python is 1 of the first documentation)
• Perl
• Erlang
• MySQL
• and much more…

I highly recommend readers to go check Gotapi. RTFM has just gotten easier.
