Doh, I don’t know why I didn’t think of that…
This doesn’t work with IE, though…
“This doesn’t work with IE, though…”
A lot of things don’t. Try playing with the width value, that is set it to something less than 100%, or provide an exact pixel width.
True. I’m just letting folk know that the overflow: hidden doesn’t work in IE. A lot of things don’t work in IE, but a lot of our visitors use IE and we have to keep that browser in mind. Setting the width value didn’t get me what I wanted, so I just removed the “/”s from any URLs so that the line could break somewhere convenient. I’m using a recent comments plug in:

I changed:
$words = split(" ",$comment_content);
to:
$words = split("[ /]",$comment_content);
So now it’s looking for a space or for “/” to count as the character between words. This has its drawbacks and I’d do better to install a proper plug in. It’s on my list of things to-do (research, research, research for the right plug in!); this fix worked for now.
If you don’t mind a hacky plugin solution (hacky in the sense I’ve never been happy with it, but it works for the most part)…
