I have noticed about a half a dozen posts where a sentance will run of the page with no way to view it. Its like the word just gets cut off when it gets to the side of the screen.

<A href = "http://www.visualbasicforum.com/bbs/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=visbas&Number=23873&page=0&view=collapsed&sb=5&o=7&part=1#Post23875" > Here </a> is one of them.

BTW Great site!

Doesn't happen to me.
Mine simply word wraps the sentence as it should.

In Dazz's post, this line:

Can be a bit of a mess, but if you have a certain problem driving you mad, it may just save your s

gets cut off at the s. It happens in AOL and IE for me. I can however, copy and paste it to notepad and I'll get all of it.

Oh well, its probably something on my end.

I don't normally get it, but it can happen to me if I edit a post.

I think I might also have had something like that happen when I posted something between PRE and /PRE html tags; the line afterwards didn't wrap.

Here's a test:

<PRE>
this string is between PRE tags

</PRE>

this string is going to be very long so that I can test whether or not it will wrap to the window the way it is supposed to wor whether it will be cut off like JDT found in the initial post.

I guess that might be it....

I am unable to read the whole sentence in your above post here at the house but on other machines I can. Looks like you found it and now that you mention it, the posts I have seen that had this problem have had HTML Tags in them (I think).
