All are WinXP:
IE6:
Looks purdy! Everything works just as intended, all the way down to 640x480
(didn't try going lower)
NN4.0:
Looks awful. Big font, purple background with black text, and no line
breaks... just one big messy paragraph of code.
Moz1.0:
No line numbers, and the long lines of code scroll off past the right-side
beige border without wrapping.
NN6.2:
Same as moz1.0
NN7.0(rc1):
Same as moz/nn6
I can provide screenshots if you'd like, jeff.
The CSS-capable, but non-IE browsers do not display a scrollable DIV like I
was expecting. It's just a horz. scoll of the whole page. From reading your
original post, it sounds like that might not be correct... see

HTH!

hola evoltistas,
i've been playing around with trying to alter the way code is displayed in a
<pre></pre>, mostly in an effort to find a solution that will keep long
lines from breaking the design by pushing out beyond the boundaries of the
content area.
http://members.evolt.org/jeff/code/modified_pre_blocks.cfm
ie5+/win users with js enabled should see line numbers and long lines should
wrap. all other competent css capable browsers should show the <pre></pre>
blocks in a scrollable area. all other browsers should display normal,
undecorated <pre></pre> blocks.
i'm looking for feedback on the implementation, bugs, comments, suggestions,
etc.
thanks,
.jeff
