I'll admit, I've been doing frontend for a while and I hadn't heard of the <wbr> element. Thanks for the pointer!

  > [1] Support for the <wbr> tag was introduced in Internet Explorer 5.5, though removed again in version 7. probably the biggest problem with it.

    Doesn't seem like a problem to me: http://caniuse.com/#search=wbr http://caniuse.com/#search=wbr

      Not supported in IE11, unfortunately, which is a deal-breaker for me. It was hard enough to get permission to drop IE <10 at $EMPLOYER.

  Technically, it's a tag, not a pointer.

    He means "pointer" in the non comp-sci sense of the word, as in "thanks for the tip!"
    • stephengillie 10y ago
      I had meant it in the sarcastic sense.

        Ah ok, I thought you might have but wasn't sure :)
