jqgrid long text wrapping

Question

In jqgrid we have long text getting from DB, but need to wrap while displaying in JQgrid, is there any way to wrap long text (with out any spaces)? We have only 110px to spa

Answer 1

.ui-jqgrid tr.jqgrow td
{           
    word-wrap: break-word; /* IE 5.5+ and CSS3 */
    white-space: pre-wrap; /* CSS3 */
    white-space: -pre-wrap; /* Opera 4-6 */
    white-space: -o-pre-wrap; /* Opera 7 */
    white-space: normal !important;
    height: auto;
    vertical-align: text-top;
    padding-top: 2px;
    padding-bottom: 3px;
}

Use the above code its working. If your not give space also it will break lines

In case of the test which you need to display has no blanks or other white-space you can't use the CSS style described here and here.

I would recommend you to use another CSS style:

<style type="text/css">
    .ui-jqgrid tr.jqgrow td {
        word-wrap: break-word; /* IE 5.5+ and CSS3 */
        white-space: pre-wrap; /* CSS3 */
        white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; /* Mozilla, since 1999 */
        white-space: -pre-wrap; /* Opera 4-6 */
        white-space: -o-pre-wrap; /* Opera 7 */
        overflow: hidden;
        height: auto;
        vertical-align: middle;
        padding-top: 3px;
        padding-bottom: 3px
    }
</style>

How you can see from the demo the text "testtesttesttesttesttesttesttesttest" will be displayed as the following:

Above solution didnt worked for me, exaclty as is, but with little modification did! Go to themes/ui.jqgrid.css: search for: .ui-jqgrid tr.jqgrow td : and in the brackets insert:

 word-wrap: break-word; // IE 5.5+ and CSS3
        white-space: pre-wrap; // CSS3
        white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; // Mozilla, since 1999
        white-space: -pre-wrap; // Opera 4-6
        white-space: -o-pre-wrap; // Opera 7
        overflow: hidden;
        height: auto;
        vertical-align: middle;
        padding-top: 3px;
        padding-bottom: 3px
