Large word counts distort page layout #19

Closed crossedxd closed 5 years ago

crossedxd commented 5 years ago

If the contents of the output area grow beyond the normal size of the area, the box grows, and causes all elements on the page to shift around in an undesirable fashion.

Corrections will need to be made to the CSS, and I may need to adopt some other technique to handle the page layout. The ideal result is a single-page with a fixed size (filled window), with the contents of the output area becoming scrollable within aforementioned area.

This issue could be temporarily masked if the Word Count was limited to top 10/20. I don't know how I feel about this, because that would essentially be burying the issue, but at the same time, it'd make things much more presentable in the near term.

It may also be worthwhile to look into how div tags interact with the CSS grid stuff. It's possible that there are existing problems with this, and there are definitely better solutions out there for a more "structured/rigid" page layout than what is currently being employed.

This may be solvable by manipulating the height attributes on a number of tags on the page (which I may or may not have tried before). There's a pretty good write-up on it located here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/16837667
