Wide threads

Wide threads like this one (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?threadid=69042) are so annoying! I hope this goes away.

I think that this is caused by Code or PHP vB Code.

its caued by the code tags as adding line breaks would stop the code from working in most cases.

It's caused by putting all posts in one table, instead of putting each post in a separate table, which allows the post with the code to go wide without affecting all posts in the threads.

the vb2 system was better here right, but don't forget vb3 style is not final and that's a style question

[Scott MacVicar]

one of the main requests was to put the posts in a single table to allow for easier editing.

The problem with it is wide posts and it takes longer time to render on some systems.

What might be usefull is to do insert line breaks in code elements (or just create a truncated summary). But then at the bottom of each code block have a link like "see entire code in original form", which will open a popup with all original code intact.

I mean, in a normal post you would see something like:Click here to see the code (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/code.php?action=viewcode&postid=456771)Click the link and up comes a popup where the code can be as messy as it likes without stuffing up the forum layout

Can you not put 'code' inside a textarea?

Can you not put 'code' inside a textarea?
You could but using an iframe or a div with overflow:auto applied would be a better solution.
