I am a newbie coder and I am having a small issue with this code.

I downloaded this hack for Vbull 3.6.8

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...=147344&page=4

basically it displays the latest threads on my non-forum homepage. The problem is that if the threat title is too long it will expand the box and distort my homepage. You can see it here www.forex4noobs.com I am not sure if its distorted now but the box that has the threads becomes very wide.

I was wondering if there is a way to constrain the size or limit the amount of characters it shows from the threads heading. I think it is pretty straight forward there is a HTML file in that download i assume I just edit it in dream weaver I just do not know how to code something like that.

Any ideas?

Here is the entire code I need to edit the first few lines so it limits the amount of characters it shows from the actul thread name or somehow constrain that part from widening beyond a certain point??

<fieldset>
<legend>Thread: <a href='{url}/showthread.php?t={threadid}'>{threadname}</a></legend>
