Answer 1

Change your code

word-wrap: break-word;

to

word-break:break-all;

    <td>
      <div style="word-break:break-all;">longtextwithoutspacelongtextwithoutspace Long Content, Long Content, Long Content, Long Content, Long Content, Long Content, Long Content, Long Content, Long Content, Long Content</div>
    </td>
    <td><span style="display: inline;">Short Content</span>
    </td>
  </tr>
</table>

Just add width. This worked for me.

     <td style="width:10%;"><strong>Item Name</strong></td>

The following works for me in Internet Explorer. Note the addition of the table-layout:fixed CSS attribute

td {
  border: 1px solid;
}

<table style="table-layout: fixed; width: 100%">
  <tr>
    <td style="word-wrap: break-word">
      LongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongWord
    </td>
  </tr>
</table>

Answer 6

This works for me:

<style type="text/css">
    td {

        /* CSS 3 */
        white-space: -o-pre-wrap;
        word-wrap: break-word;
        white-space: pre-wrap;
        white-space: -moz-pre-wrap;
        white-space: -pre-wrap;
    }

And table attribute is:

   table {
      table-layout: fixed;
      width: 100%
   }

</style>
