Title screw-up.

Anyone else seen this? The title appears as "..." in the forums listing, but it's simply a normal link, once you display the forum posts.
I think maybe it's got something to do with the fact that, if a title's longer than x amount of chars, it replaces the end with "...".


Example attached.

Exactly. The title's just too long.

Yea, I've seen it. It happens when the title is long, and there either no spaces, or the part before the first space is still too long to be displayed. I thought about saying something in here last week, but decided it wasn't worth mentioning it. Doesn't happen too often that I notice. I don't usually use that listing anyway.

Yeah, I'm more just curious than anything else. I just don't get why it cuts the whole title off and replaces with ...

If the really long titled thread were displayed on the forums homepage the layout may be altered and it would push everything out of position. It's changed to "..." so that the design of the site isn't messed up. You'll often see the "..." for the Website Critiques section, where the long URL titles could affect the layout quite a bit.
