second problem i ran into is:

when posting images or urls (or just some text string, for example “aaaaaaaa..etc”)
that are bigger than the table/div comment width, the whole layout expands and fucks up…

is there any way to cut the images/urls/big strings off?

TIA

This is a generalized HTML issue rather than anything specific to pMachine Pro (or any tool, for that matter).

For a quick—but not ideal—solution, you could make use of the overflow CSS property on the element that contains the content that might be too big.  Beyond that, you’d probably need a programatic solution that is beyond what we can help with here.

Hi

Forgive me - I am having a similar problem. I’d like the images in the long column on the left of this page:

http://www.chesapeakeeast.com/pages/orig_art_painting2.php

to show up in rows of 4 or 5 to fill the space rather than as it is now. I went to the CSS tutorial which is excellent but after trying several different options I am still not getting the effect I want. I have also turnedoff the auto

<br />

option on the field that these images are placed in.

Any help woukd be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your indulgence.

Dana
