Bug #23557 for SVN-Notify: BUG w/fix: Long single-line log messages are unreadable in Outlook 2003

Here's a screenshot of what I'm talking about: In this particular case, the checkin log message contained a single long line of text with no trailing carriage return. In Html.pm, the Log Message is being formatted using a pre tag, and the CSS speficies the pre tag should use overflow:auto. When viewing the email in my copy of Outlook 2003 (I assume it's using my IE7 to render), the Log Message is completely illegibile. The horizontal scrollbar appears and completely obstructs the log message. My solution was to add an inline style to the <pre> tags surrounding the log message. I chose to use an inline style instead of modifying the CSS because this problem only affects the log message, as it's likely the only place where a single line would be rendered in pre tags. diffs and patches would almost certainly be more than one line. I could have added a new class and assigned the class to the pre tag also. Anyway, the only change is to set style="word-wrap: break-word". This allows wrapping. This effectively eliminates the horizontal scrollbar altogether, allowing the log message to wrap. For me, that's just fine, since there's no great benefit to preventing a Log Message from wrapping. I'm not a fan of the horizontal scrollbars to begin with. Hope this helps, Larry Silverman Chief Technology Officer TrackAbout, Inc. www.trackabout.com
