Is there a way to ensure that the fixed column width is maintained even with long strings?
I am trying to display a report in a jsp by having headers in one table and content in another table, both with columns set to the same width. However, some of the text in the columns is too long. I am wondering if there is a way to truncate the string so that the columns do not expand beyond their designated width.
Your assistance would be greatly appreciated.
One possible solution is using the text-overflow: ellipsis property:
td {
white-space: nowrap;
overflow: hidden; /* For "overflow," make sure it's not set to "visible" */
text-overflow: ellipsis;
}
Keep in mind that older versions of IE may behave strangely if you don't specify explicit widths for your columns.
To limit the content of an element to its parent's dimensions, you can utilize CSS's overflow property.
#contentBox{
width: 300px;
height: 150px;
overflow: hidden;
}
<div id="contentBox">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.</div>
