I'm sorry, it is... word-break: that you need. Maybe in combination with the others would work well.

David, yes, it is a WP site and i found the problem in the css and just took it out. All's well now. Thanks to Karl, too, word-break would have worked also, and i'm very happy to know about it. best Donna -- Donna Jones http://westendwebs.com/ __ css-discuss [css-d@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
