Like the title says, I am having issues with a VERY long string overflowing my page. I tried some overflow techniques, but none seem to work.
I had previously posted this as a Primefaces problem, but have since learned that it is not a Primefaces issue. Anyway, if anybody has any suggestions on how I can fix this, I would appreciate it. I will post my HTML below so you can see what I am talking about.
Thanks for taking the time to read, and have a great day. :-)
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title> problem </title>
<style type="text/css">
span.troubleSpan {
overflow: scroll;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h4> problem </h4>
<div>
<table border="1">
<tr>
<td>
<span>cell</span>
</td>
<td>
<span> </span>
</td>
<td>
<span>cell</span>
</td>
<td>
<span class="troubleSpan">asdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdf</span>
