how can i don't scroll long string by java script?

[mdharaghizadeh]

Hello
For example I have a div tag with long sting that string length is greater than one line:
<div>
qwekmlkmckskmkm lkmlcmdhuhjefuy bcvgdwelfjnfjev ljhjnfukfmkdfol ffneuwghqnnmlde lmkeienfbuyheuy tgpkrnbxhbybwij emncksmczmcigvk fmmfrkmfkcmsewl kfklcwehrunrjng t
</div>

browsers show it in one line with scroll,but I want to go to the next line when the sting arrive to the end of line.
how can i do it with java script?

you can use CSS3’s word-break property.

Thanks,but I know it,
I want to do it by java script,because I want to continue the string in two lines later.
Do you know that how can I do this?

do you use a monospaced font?

No,i don't use monospaced font.

then you can’t AFAIK cut the string on the border of the element, as I do not know that it is possible to determine the width of a part (after a certain count of characters) of a string.

the best bet would be a lucky guess based on the average length per character.

though if you have lots of time, you could create an inline element, fill it with a character, check its length, fill it with the next character, check length again and repeat until you reach the element border.

this is usually the job of the browser’s (HTML) rendering engine, which does not hook into the JS engine.
