force text wrap in netscape (Firefox)

hi,

im trying to get a long text to wrap in a div with a given width

PHP Code:
<div style="
width: 100px;
word-wrap: break-word;
"
>
aaweofajw;eofija;weoifja;weoifja;woeifja;woeifja;wieofj
</div


however, the closest thing i found is "word-wrap: break-word;" which only works in IE. is there anyway i can get it to work in netscape or firefox?

thanks!

justin

maybe you can add spaces.. ?
although that's not a real solution.

There is an entity called a soft or discretionary hyphen. It can be placed at likely break*points without showing, unless it breaks, then the hyphen shows. The word, "breakpoint" in the previous sentence contains a soft hyphen.

* or ­

cheers,

gary
