  • 0

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 spare for payee name field because we have multiple columns needs to be displayed. Our code is like

{name:"firstPayeeName",index:"firstPayeeName", width:"110px", align:"left", sorttype:"string"},

Pls provide solution if any. Thanks in advance.

    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:
