I want to show a paragraph from database into a table cell.
The result is a large 1 line, ignoring how its organised in database. ignoring 'enters' for example (new lines)
I want to show it exactly according to how it's written in database.
For example if paragraph is saved like this:
hello ,
my name is x.
I want it to be showed exactly like that, instead of:
hello, myname is x.
You want to use the CSS white-space:pre
applied to the appropriate <td>
. To do this to all table cells, for example:
td { white-space:pre }
Alternatively, if you can change your markup, you can use a <pre>
tag around your content. By default web browsers use their user-agent stylesheet to apply the same white-space:pre
rule to this element.
The PRE element tells visual user agents that the enclosed text is "preformatted". When handling preformatted text, visual user agents:
- May leave white space intact.
- May render text with a fixed-pitch font.
- May disable automatic word wrap.
- Must not disable bidirectional processing.
