Shoutbox Glitch?

Alright so if a user decides (for whatever reason) to post ddddddddddddddddddddddddggggggsgsgsgsgsgsgsgssgsgsggs in the shoutbox with no spaces, it super stretches the shoutbox On our custom theme. I don't know if that's fixable on our side or not. Here's what it looks like... 




Here is what it's suppose to look like (when they do have all those letters).

It's not really a glitch. The shoutbox is working as it should. Just someone being a pain.

You could try adding this to your stylesheet:

.shoutbox-post .message {
word-wrap: break-word;
}

See how that goes.

On a side note, your Home button in the Nav Bar leads to a 404 in case you weren't aware

O.o thank you for telling me! I'll check on that.

And Craig! We'll try that.

Let me know how it goes, as i wasn't able to test it to check first. But it should work, hopefully

In case that doesn't work here's another solution I tested:

.shoutbox_messages .shoutbox-post { word-break: break-all; }

Is your shoutbox container percentage based ? If so you can set a max-width on it to prevent it from growing any bigger.


.container{ max-width: 20%; }

You can also allow a user to grow the textarea, you may want to restrict it vertically though.


textarea{ resize: vertical; min-height: 100px; }
