How to enable line break at hyphens on Firefox

Question

Chrome, IE, and Safari break lines at hyphens but Firefox doesn\'t.

Is there any way to make Firefox break lines at hyphens, like other browsers?

Answer 1

Insert the tag after the hyphen. This tag is not present in any HTML specification (yet—it is in HTML5 drafts), but it has worked for a long time in browsers.

Firefox automatically treats a hyphen as allowing a line break after it when there are sufficiently many characters around the hyphen. But if you wish to allow line breaks more widely than that, use , e.g. pre-war.
