As far as I know, control of how text wrap was introduced in CSS3: http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-text/#text-wrap All though, IE has it's own property for this http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms531186(VS.85).aspx
I think you'll have to pick a different word for your localization. Out of curiosity, why can't you change the width of the drop down menu? ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: wsg@webstandardsgroup.org Sent: Tuesday, February 19, 2008 7:23 AM Subject: [WSG] long words not wrapping inside DIV HI . I have a dropdown menu with a width of 150px. while localization some texts are too long and it is not wrapping inside the DIV and going outside the div. Is there any way to wrap long words. I don't want to use scrollbars in the div and I can't increase the width of the DIV. Pls help.. Thanks a ton in advance..
