Link running outside containing tag

    Hello

    I’m having a problem with a link in the sidebar.

    To let the client post tweets on their page, I’m using the plugin Twitter Tools. I’ve hardcoded the plgin into sidebar.php to get the look I wanted on it.

    It has been working fine, until the other day when the client posted a new tweet. The tweet contains a url link, which in Safari and Chrome runs outside the whole sidebar.
    The url contains underscores, which may be the reason that it won’t break into two lines. I’m not sure of this though, but the thought crossed my mind because several other tweets contains urls not containing underscores, and these are looking just fine.

    I haven’t found any way to fix this, so if any of you know a way to get the url to stay inside the containing tag like everything else, it would be great. The url to the site is http://www.fotojournalisten.no

    .aktt_tweets ul li {
         overflow: hidden;
         }

    Added to the bottom of your style.css should take care of this. (it works for me anyway…)

    It sure fixes the overflow, but that also means that the rest of the link disappears instead of breaking into a new line, which is what I’m really want the link to do.

    But thanks, it will certainly do until I find a full fix 🙂

    Yeah, it was just a quick and dirty fix to keep things from looking bad….I had meant to fix it properly, but never got back to it….
