Post Title and Post Content overflow

  • Hi,

    i got a big problem and don’t know the solution. I’m still working on an own WP-Theme and when i type in a very long Post title the title flows over the sidebar. The Content too. So what is wrong and how can i change it?

    <div class="article">	

			<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><? the_title( ); ?></a></h2>

			<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/inc/meta.php' ); ?>

		<div class="solidLine">&nbsp;</div>

		<div class="entry">

		<?php the_content(); ?>

		</div>
..

    I tried in CSS to set the overall Div (section) to overflow hidden. But this cut only the overflow stuff.

    So what can i do?

  • Can you attach the current CSS that you are using? Seems like it may be an issue with the width of your container.

    #section {
	position: relative;
	float: left;
	width: 594px;
	margin: 0 0 25px;
}
#aside {
	position: relative;
	float: left;
	width: 250px;
	padding: 0 15px 0 70px;
	margin: 0 0 25px 25px;
	background-color: #9699a3;

    I’m working locally right now. Can’t upload it ?? at the moment.

    without knowing the width of the container that #section and #aside are in, I’d say you can try 

    #section {
  white-space: normal;
}

    You may have nowrap somewhere.

    adrinho use chrome inspect elements. seems your content is rendering
    pre tag that is making content area wider. you already changed the theme it means either you have pre tag or you have some element which width is more than your content section. please review your content in html mode.

    Welcome in advance.

    @john > no luck with that solution

    Do you have space between words? seems to me no space between words.

    I agree. Once there are spaces, the content should break up automatically like in the second post in the image.
