Hey guys, I’m using a Rich Text field here which is parsing HTML code. ![Screenshot 2020-09-13 at 6.10.03 PM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/a/a3826fb5510930982e75c6d19087854e73615647.jpeg) As you can see in the image, my content is overflowing outside the viewport/screen. Is there a workaround to set a Max Width or something like a container to contain the area within which the data can be present??

FYI - but for sure it is used a lot so perhaps one of the other HTML using Gliders can help! > [@Rich text / iframe / video / google forms](https://community.glideapps.com/t/rich-text-iframe-video-google-forms/6634/2): > > HTML is not supported in the Rich Text component. ---

Oh! That’s too bad. I was really hoping there’d be a simple workaround. ---

There might be. @Jeff_Hager or @Robert_Petitto? ---

Not sure, but you could try wrapping all of the html in a `
` tag with width set to 100%. I’m guessing one object in the html is wider or has a hard-set pixel width set, so it’s setting the overall width of all of the content on the entire page beyond the pixel width of the screen. ---

Hi there @Sharvan, I agree with @Jeff_Hager, one of the elements in your html code is too wide, probably your image. Workarounds work fine until they don’t anymore. If I were you I would ignore workarounds. If a text component doesn’t support html, then it doesn’t support it. 🙂 ---

Plus I’ve read many times that HTML may stop working at anytime without notice (since it isn’t supported in the first place). So that’s a big risk you should consider… ---

Thanks for your prompt response guys. Guess I’ll have to figure out a non-HTML way of doing it now. Will definitely let yall know how that goes. 😁 ---

That’s what I was going to suggest. I imagine the image was pulling the div past 100%.
