My latest idea is a mixed strategy: I know the critical parts of the layout, where hyphenation is essential for responsiveness and at the same time, weewx labels are used. For these parts of the layout I use hyphens: auto; in the css. This may lead to a hyphenation which may look a little bit unusual (I wouldn't hyphenate "encyclopedia" as "encyclope-dia" or "en-cyclopedia", rather "encyclo-pedia", although it's correct in any way), but doesn't break the layout and it is just for the critical parts. For the rest, I use hyphens: manual; and propose using ­ entities only for [Text] values.
In the end, it is the users decision, anyway. Tom Keffer schrieb am Montag, 6.
