RE: [Arsperl-users] Long Line of Data

[Lintner, M. <mit...@ci...>]

Yeah, you hit the nail on the head. This is an old script that I wrote a
long time ago. I am using <pre></pre>. It appears to be the only way I
can keep the formatting that is in the Character field but when someone
types a long line it goes off the screen or get cut off when sent to the
printer.

Mitch,

It sounds like the browser doesn't want to auto word wrap.  Does it data
look okay on the screen?  If not, check for <pre> and </pre> around the
text.  These tags tell the browser the text is already formatted so
don't do anything with it.  There may be other tags which would create
the same problem.  You could try forcing the width of the screen using a
table with a specified width.

HTH,

I have an ARSPerl script that pulls data from a form and displays it in
an HTML window where it can then be sent to a printer using the Browser
print capability. I have one problem. When the script pulls the
Description field from the record and displays it, it gets displayed as
a very long line. Is there a way to take this value and display it in a
reasonable line length?

Thanks,=20
