Can Bootstrap support breaking the inline code block?

I am currently developing Blaze, an application that utilizes the SE API to retrieve recent content. It is effective in identifying NAAs, but a particular issue arises when someone places extensive code or even an entire sentence within an inline code block:

Ideally, it should appear like this on a non-SO site:

Essentially, the inline code blocks fail to break, causing the td element to be displaced to the right. The following HTML markup is generated:

<tr>
    <td style="vertical-align:top" class="col-md-1">
        <div class="score">
            <h2 style="color:rgba(0,0,0,0.6); pull:right">0</h2>
        </div>
    </td>
    <td class="">
        <div class="post col-md-9">
            <h3><a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22561506/how-can-i-insert-php-into-a-webpage-using-javascript/22561707#22561707">How can I insert PHP into a webpage using Javascript</a></h3>
            <hr>
            <span class="post-body" style="color:rgba(70,70,70,1)">                    
                <p><code>Is it possible to insert PHP code into a webpage using javascript after the page has loaded?</code> The simple answer is no. The page has already been rendered, the only way to change it is using javascript running within the user's browser.</p>
                ...
            </span>
            <p style="color:grey; float:right">posted by <a href="http://stackoverflow.com/users/2155068/mjrkusanagi">MjrKusanagi</a> <span>a minute ago</span></p>
        </div>
    </td>
</tr>

This includes all the non-Bootstrap CSS used:

<style>
  img 
  {
      max-width:100%;
  }
  html, body 
  {
      height: 100%;
  }
  #wrap 
  {
      min-height: 100%;
      height: auto;
      margin: 0 auto -50px;
      padding: 0 0 50px;
  }
  #footer 
  {
      height: 50px;
      background-color: clear; 
      border-top:1px dashed rgba(0,0,0,0.2);
  }
  .navbar .navbar-nav 
  {
      display: inline-block;
      float: none;
  }
  .navbar .navbar-collapse 
  {
      text-align: center;
  }
  .flag-button:hover 
  {
      background-color:red; 
      color: white
  }
</style>

Is there a solution available to either (a) prioritize the td over the inline code blocks, or (b) enable the code blocks to wrap properly?

Answer №1

By default, Bootstrap applies the no-wrap style to whitespace in code. However, you have the ability to change this behavior by overriding it with a different value that allows for wrapping.

Check out an example here

Custom CSS

code {
    white-space: normal;    
}

Answer №2

I incorporated a modified version of @thgaskell's solution, sourced from this location (replacing pre with code).

/* Utilizing browser-specific (though not officially valid) styles to allow preformatted text to wrap */        

code {
 white-space: pre-wrap;       /* css-3 */
 white-space: -moz-pre-wrap;  /* Mozilla, starting in 1999 */
 white-space: -pre-wrap;      /* Opera versions 4 through 6 */
 white-space: -o-pre-wrap;    /* Opera 7 */
 word-wrap: break-word;       /* Works for Internet Explorer 5.5 and above */
}
