388155 - Text in nickname column wrapped too agressively

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Other Applications :: ChatZilla, defect)

Description

[James Ross]

This is probably caused by bug 255990, but I don't really feel like trying to find out.

The result is this: http://twpol.dyndns.org/temp/gecko_1.png

We should just throw some no-wrap CSS at all the columns except msg-data (the main one).

yeah, the columns should be styled as no-wrap.

Or you can use   judiciously

Comment 3

er, forget I said that

Comment 4

[Masayuki Nakano [:masayuki] (he/him)(JST, +0900)]

no, if breakable character is in nick name, &nbsp cannot fix this.

Comment 5

[James Ross]

The problem I pictured was it breaking the generated content "from(" anyway, which can only be fixed with more beating of CSS.

On my own CSS I've tried this :
 .msg[dest-type="IRCUser"]{
   white-space: nowrap
}

I hope it will help you.

This bug is too annoying, argh!
(there is nowrap already on the timestamps and msg-type, so I think this is all we need)
