Firefox won't break long words at a hyphen, so the long word will overflow its container. Other browsers _will_ break at a hyphen. The overflow-behavior is correct, but Gecko-browsers should start breaking words at hyphens, IMO. So, yes, Firefox has a weak spot here, and there are not all that many workarounds for it. > For what it's worth, it operates perfectly in IE7. Dunno about the > other IE versions. IE6 (and older versions) doesn't understand min-width, so they will make a bit of a mess of it at narrow windows. I usually add a min-width simulation, an expression or something, for IE6, but not in this quick demo. >> <http://www.gunlaug.no/tos/alien/test_8572.html> regards Georg -- http://www.gunlaug.no ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7 information -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
