broke-r

How can I break very long URLs (generated dynamically) in two or more lines?

The "code":

<table>
<td>URL:</td><td>PHP_GENERATED_URL</td>
</table>

On the table above, if the link is very long, my page looks pretty ugly as everything moves to the right.

I have tried divs with css (word-wrap etc.), fixed width, but nothing seems to work.

Any ideas? Thanks!

Are you trying to do something like "host.com/somet...blah.php" where you replace the bulk of the url with an ellipsis? Or something else? Do you just want the url to wrap to many lines in the table?

Thanks for the reply monaco.

No, I don't want an ellipsis. Just need to make the url break/split in several lines, (instead of just one), in order for long urls to stop making my site "stretch" to the right.

I have used word-wrap but it doesn't do the trick...

At a guess, the CSS overflow property could hide excess text or the PHP wordwrap function could ensure it's a fixed length.
