Formatting text in a cell (word Wrap)
Here is the problem in a nutshell...
I use the following table to enter a text entry into a field called "Techtext" in a Access database, data type "Memo".
<table width="690" border="1" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3">
<tr>
<td width="21"> </td>
<td width="20"> </td>
<td width="22"> </td>
<td width="588"><strong>Text Entry </strong> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td height="189"><label>
<input name="hiddenField_User" type="hidden" id="hiddenField_User" value="<CFOUTPUT>#Session.MM_Username#</CFOUTPUT>" />
</label></td>
<td><label>
<input name="hiddenField_date" type="hidden" id="hiddenField_date" value="<CFOUTPUT>#DateFormat(Now(), "mm/dd/yyyy")#</CFOUTPUT>" />
</label></td>
<td><label>
<input name="hiddenField_pn" type="hidden" id="hiddenField_pn" value="<CFOUTPUT>#URLDecode (URL.Number)#</CFOUTPUT>" />
</label></td>
<td><label>
<textarea name="TechText" cols="85" rows="25" wrap="physical" id="TechText"></textarea>
</label></td>
</tr>
</table>
I am trying to display this data (and others) in a table. The Last table row is for addendum text display.
It should display the value of "Texttext" in the cell of this table. The problem is that the original data may not contain a carriage return, so the data just bleeds right off screen. Here is the code:
<table width="692" border="1" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3">
<cfoutput query="Support">
<cfif Support.currentrow mod 1 eq 1>
<tr><tr><td> </td>
</cfif>
<td width="136"><strong>Addendum Date: </strong></td>
<td width="535">#Support.Date#</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><strong>Addendum By: </strong></td>
<td>#Support.User_Name#</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><strong>Addendum Text:</strong> </td>
<td width="85" align="left"><div align="left"><span class="style2">#Support.TechText#</span></div></td>
<tr>
<td><strong> </strong></td>
<td> </td>
<cfif Support.currentrow mod 1 eq 0>
</tr>
</cfif>
</cfoutput>
</table>
How can I get this data to display in 85 character lines (essentially adding a carriage return after every 85 character). I have searched the net, but have found no solution. You can see the resulting table here: http://devo.dns2go.com/info.cfm?PartNumber=AH058AA
Thank You in advance !
