At last ! Long Urls reduced

[admin]

I think I've finally cracked the problem of long Urls breaking up the layout.

eg - this URL posted by spike was very wide - it seems ok now.

That should save me the time that I used to spend tidying links like that.

Do you know about this?

You just copy and paste your long url into the space, click, and it turns into a tiny url.
Very useful.

My URL is very wide - I told you not to tell anyone - you naughty boy!!

Do you know about this?

Yes I did thanks - and I think there was a mod that can do that for the forum. The problem is that if tiny.cc go out of business then all the urls will no longer work.

I did it without using a mod. I used css so there is no extra code involved.

Sorry Spike but I thought you were proud of it

border-bottom: 1px solid #A8B6CF;
display: inline-block;
max-width: 24em;
overflow: hidden;
text-overflow: ellipsis;
vertical-align: bottom;
white-space: pre;

Very clever
