 |
|
I have an RSS Widget that is basically working properly, however, some of the titles are too long and want to run off the widget. I am pretty it has something to do with the CSS file. I have tried to change the numbers around, but I haven't gotten the desired result. If you wouldn't mind taking a look at this for me I would appreciate it very much.
Send me an email at friedguy@gmail.com and I will send you the widget.
Thanks! |

in the div that contains your text that you want to be clipped, set the following attribute:
overflow: hidden; |

| Yes that is the most obvious way. However, I don't think that the width of the table (contains titles) was set the proper width, therefore it didn't clip them in the proper spot. With the advice of andrethegiant I was able to test the title char length and if it was over 45 chars or so I would take the substring and add "..." to the end. So in the end it looks great. Thanks for the response. |
