Hi all,
I've been trying to google this bug for a few hours and haven't turned
up anything which leads me to believe the way I'm framing the question
is the way someone else has.
Anyway hopefully someone can help.
Basically I have a table on a web form that is being created
dynamically with a set of fields being rendered programatically down
the page.
Essentially two columns:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fieldname | Field
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fieldname | Field
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Etc all the way down.
The fields are a mix of single line text boxes, multi-line text boxes
and drop down lists.
Everything works completely fine programmatically and build wise except
when there is a single line text box [width set to 80% of the table
cell it sits in] and the text is too long to fit in the box and thus
goes invisible [out the end of the field where you'd need to cursor to
see it] - it then seems to push the containing Table Cell out by the
requisite amount as well.
On quite long things [particualrly a field which contains a URL] they
are creating the situation where the cell is maybe 50% again the width
of the screen thus shifting everything out proportionately because I
use a fluid design rather than fixed to accomodate different sized
screens.
I've tried commanding it to a fixed width [no good], setting a style
[no good], adding attributes in code [no good] - in fact nothing seems
to fix the problem.
Has anyone come across this before and if so, how do you fix it?
Kindest regards
