Word wrap

[assaf]

hi,

i have a very simple design,
basically its 2 columns and a footer.

<div style="padding:10px;" id="MainContainer">
<div style=" float:left;width:450px;" id="videocontainer">
<h2 align="center">Video Search Results</h2>
<p align="center">&nbsp;</p>

%content%

</div><!--videocontainer -->

<div style="float:left;width:450px;" id="tagsContainer">

<h2>Tags</h2>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

%content%

</div> <!-- end tagContainer -->

<div style="clear:both" id="footer">

%content%
</div> <!-- footer -->
</div><!-- end mainContainer -->

my problem is that when, in the tagsContainer, i have a long word and a big font size the word does not break and the div displays UNDER the left div!!

what can i do "stick" the div in its place and break the word into the next line?

thanks,

assaf

There is no left div, at least none with that id, which div do you mean?

Coincidentally, I've described (http://www.dynamicdrive.com/forums/showpost.php?p=84008&postcount=1337) this very IE bug in the browser war that has become of Stupid Firefox.

john -
thanks for replying, i will try to describe again my problem,

"my problem is that when, in the tagsContainer, i have a long word and a big font size the word does not break and the div displays UNDER the left div!!"

the let div has id of ''videocontainer" as you can see from the code.

anyway how do i stop an object to change no matter what it have inside?
in other words, how to break text (single word) or make it jump to the next row like in this post editor?

thanks,

If you'd read the post to which I've linked above, you'd know the answer to that.

twey sorry your post was unclear ( to me anyway) ,

if you ment to use -
{word-wrap: break-word;}

didn't work :(

sorry i din't said that before but this is a Tags<div> so the tags inside it are links( <a href> ).
so a problematic word will be -
<a href='/show_tags.php?tag=episodes' style="font-size:64px;;" title="161 page(s) found" >episodes</a>

how can i break it?

thanks,

found the problem, because the pages are dynamic a broken tag caused this problem....
