Description of problem

The BBCODE tag "CODE" stretches the form beyond its normal boundaries for no reason. Please do not reply asking if this happens anywhere else on the forum. It does. Please do not ask me if I am sure about it, I know. I'm thinking it is CSS, but I have no idea how to find the issue. I will paste my CSS below.

Hi there,

I believe it's the 'width' property on your 'code' selector. Try removing that and see if that solves the problem.

Code:
.code {
color: #3a3a3a;
background-color: #ddd;
/*font-family: "courier new", "times new roman", monospace;*/
font-size: x-small;
line-height: 1.3em;
/* Put a nice border around it. */
border: 1px solid #252525;
margin: 1px auto 1px auto;
padding: 1px;
width: 99%;
/* Don't wrap its contents, and show scrollbars. */
white-space: nowrap;
overflow: auto;
/* Stop after about 24 lines, and just show a scrollbar. */
max-height: 24em;
}

Did nothing.

Edit: I fixed it myself. I found the Code search bar and found an odd section.

This fixed it. I edited the nowrap tag to wrap.

/* Don't wrap its contents, and show scrollbars. */
white-space: nowrap;[Change to wrap]
overflow: auto;


Code:

/* A code block - maybe even PHP Wink. */
.code {
color: #3a3a3a;
background-color: #ddd;
/*font-family: "courier new", "times new roman", monospace;*/
font-size: x-small;
line-height: 1.3em;
/* Put a nice border around it. */
border: 1px solid #252525;
margin: 1px auto 1px auto;
padding: 1px;
width: 99%;

[b]
/* Don't wrap its contents, and show scrollbars. */
white-space: nowrap;[Change to wrap]
overflow: auto;[/b]



/* Stop after about 24 lines, and just show a scrollbar. */
max-height: 24em;
}

/* The "Quote:" and "Code:" header parts... */
.quoteheader, .codeheader {
color: #ccc;
text-decoration: none;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: bold;
font-size: x-small;
line-height: 1.2em;
}
