How can a text be wraped on a table cell

Question

I am designing a blog using a dynamically generated table in C# for code behind. When testing I enter a long text without whitespace eg. "QQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQ" it doesn't wrap on the table cell. What's the solution for this. Please help.

This works great. I wasn't sure that your reply can be implemented in the code behind. This is what I have done; tr.Cells[0].Text = " " + dr[3].ToString() + " " ; The only issue with this is that my table has two columns and after making these changes the text no longer spans the two columns as before. How can I resolve this? thanks once again Just sorted this out. This is how to span the text 2 columns; tr.Cells[0].Text = " " + dr[3].ToString() + " " ;

Check this, // add blog in a single cell and span 2 columns tr = new TableRow (); tr.Cells.Add( new TableCell ()); tr.Cells[0].Width = 500; tr.Cells[0].ColumnSpan = 2; tr.Cells[0].Text = dr[3].ToString(); this .BlogTable.Rows.Add(tr); This is where the message is being displayed. Because am not doing any work on HTML as BlogTable is generated dynamically, it is a bit difficult to implement your suggestion here.
