Forum messages view doesn't wrap?

[MichaelAivaliotis]

I'm not sure what you are referring to by the "line" however If you want, you can create your own personal CSS style and do whatever you want. Here is an example where I define the chch_style and then use it.

<style type="text/css">
<!--
.chch_style {
    background-color: #999999;
    border-top-width: 1px;
    border-right-width: 1px;
    border-bottom-width: 1px;
    border-left-width: 1px;
    border-top-style: solid;
    border-bottom-style: solid;
    border-top-color: #333333;
    border-right-color: #333333;
    border-bottom-color: #333333;
    border-left-color: #333333;
}
-->
</style>
<div align="right" class="chch_style">ABC</div>

Thanks Michael,

Don't know how I missed that. Could be perfect if you had a solution for the line background...

Try something like...

<div align="right" style="background-color: Lime;">your sig</div>

It depends on the board supporting inline CSS styles, but it's worth a shot. The color can also be expressed as a hex RGB code (#FF00FF)

Actually Jean, I did notice that the wrapping problem happened right after I quoted someone elses message. It is not directly related to Charly's signature. I also noticed that the more quoted messages you have, the worst it gets.

Perhaps after this post, NI will turn off HTML on the boards. This actually can be really dangerous and can screw up the look and feel of the forums if bad html is used. I'm curious how the forums isolate the rest of the site from bad html. Interesting.

Especially if we start messing with CSS, although the inline CSS shouldn't pose any problems to the overall page/site. They are limited to that particular tag. You just have to make sure and close the tag.

Tell you what happened yesterday : after trying a number of commands, (with various typing and syntax mistakes -  wish I had labVIEW to do that), I gave up, forgetting to remove the last trial modifications. No warning on my side since the display was apparently OK on PC and Mac. Something specific to FireFox so...

Ed solution for the line color was the simplest, but I learned a lot with Michael's.

Thanks to all of you.
