194100 2003-11-23 01:44:00 Is there a CSS command to wrap words at a certain width, or tell text not to extend an area if it flows past the width.

I've got two cells in a table, which combine to a width of 700 pixels. Below this is a second row, with a single cell, using the colspan attribute.

The problem is, the text content of this third cell (Lipsum) is rather long. And it extends the total table width past 700 pixels, which I am incredibly unhappy about.

Is there any solution to this, or is it caused by me copying the Lipsum from notepad directly into a database (which certainly wouldn't give me the best in text formatting results, I know, but it was the easiest thing to do at the time).

That looks as if it could be what you're wanting.
