Hello all,
I have HTML pages where the text to be displayed in a cloumn can be a very long string. So I have used the stylesheet as
<style type="text/css">
td{
word-wrap: break-word;
}
</style>
This works fine in IE and display just perfect. But in netscape 7.0, this doesn't work and the page size increases very badly.
Any solution how to fix it in Netscape too?
Thanks in advance.
Hemant

if you go here, Microsoft has its nice CSS explaination of its standard

I know that Netscape 6 and earilier DO NOT support that property.
