Unfortunately, it only seems to work consistently well in IE8. I didn’t get at first that you found this desirable under some circumstances. Word-wrap:break-word initiates normal wrapping in IE6 and IE7, has no effect in firefox, and breaks words in the middle in IE8. The only thing that seems predictable so far is that white-space:normal initiates normal word wrapping in almost any browser. In fact the preformatting, attributes and tags in general seemed to be a little unpredictable. It was causing some odd display issues in Internet Explorer. (Just wait a day two for me to do some editing if you are running IE8 or Safari.)įorget what I said previously about white-space:pre.

This isn’t a fancy way to go, but it should give predictable results across just about any browser.įeel free to check out my website. The best solution, at the moment, seems to be white-space:pre to preserve text formatting, using fonts that everyone has (like Arial ) and manually hitting carriage returns where the line of text should end. Unfortunately all of the word wrapping options seem to give me problems in one browser or another. I used white-space:pre-wrap with Firefox successfully and white-space:pre seems to work on almost any browser. (Unfortunately, I just found out about those last problems yesterday when viewing my web page at a client’s house. Safari had similar result as Explorer 8, but I don’t know if word-wrap should be blamed.
My experience so far with word-wrap is that it has worked well with Internet Explorer 6 and 7, didn’t work at all with Firefox and broke the line of text in the middle of words in Explorer 8.
