Hi,
I've got an issue, I'm making my first theme and so far so good, but in a particular div, the text goes further than the size of the div container, but only for the first line of the paragraph and only for 30px or so. The text comes from a $content, and there's not fancy float.

Do you guys have any idea how to resolve that ?

Thanks to all.

Can you screenshot what you mean? And show relevant code?

Have you positioned it absolutely?

Also, this is going to be a CSS issue - not really anything to do with SilverStripe.

Hi !
So I worked it out, it seems like it had something to do with the $content text. As I only design the template I copyied/pasted some dumb text into the CMS, it seems like it didn't like it ( I presume it has to do with text formating )

Anyway, everything is good now, thanks for all.
