How to wrap the text in cell

[Dhana R]

Hi,

 Am using radgrid.I need to show more than 5 fields in the UI.so I want to warp the text of some fields like email,name etc

i have tried by using
HeaderStyle-Wrap="true" DataFormatString="<br>{0}</br>" HeaderStyle-Width ="40px"  itemStyle-Width="80px"  ItemStyle-Wrap="true"

and also used

 <table  style="table-layout:fixed; overflow:hidden">

But the contents are not wrapped. Anyone can help me to solve this isue

Thanks for your help

Hi Dhana,

The Wrap property is true by default. But for the wrap to take place properly make sure that the cell text contains white space in between. Also set the TableLayout to Fixed.

     <MasterTableView TableLayout="Fixed" >

But in the case of email field there won't be any space in an email address. In that case one possible option would be to set a tooltip, which would show the complete contentes of the cell, when the user hovers over it.

Hope this suggestion helps...

Setting TableLayout to Fixed would work only in IE, not in FireFox.

Any solution?

For the benefit of others, I added this css attribute to my MasterTable class:

/* this is for FireFox's benefit only, IE does it automatically! */
word-wrap: break-word;
