Description
If a one word string is entered into the chat exceeding the width of the iframe a horizontal bar will appear. Its a PITA to scroll both vertically and horizontally when viewing a chat msg.
Is there a way to do a word count and insert line breaks so this doesn't occur?
Word wrap is needed.

#1
Word wrap is a good idea, this problem only occurs in Internet Explorer however, and is a known bug with IE's implementation of iframes.
The problem is, I need information about the text size the user is using in order to create a word wrap function, and I won't have that information 'on the fly' because of the enormous number of problems with cross-browser implementations of Javascript.

This looks like it is fixed with the new version, but further testing needed.
