I have a large HTML document containing C++ inline <code>
sequences like foo->bar
. Because hyphens are often used to induce line breaks, this sometimes results in output like:
blah blah
foo-
>bar
blah blah
which is undesirable.
-
(U+002D) with a ‑
(U+2011; non-breaking hyphen) isn't acceptable because it breaks searching for ->
in common browsers. <code>
elements with white-space:nowrap
is undesirable because some inline code segments are long enough that they really should wrap. ->
operator with <span style="white-space:nowrap">
(or <nobr>
) is unacceptable because of the editorial burden, but it's possible to write a script to do this. Is there a declarative way to specify that inside ->
isn't a good place to break a line?
(This question is not actually a duplicate of How can I use CSS to preserve line breaks in an HTML <code> block? : this question asks how to avoid line breaks, while that question asks how to create them.)
No css declarative way by now. As far as I know there is no defined format for dictionaries to be used with hyphenate-resource (or @hyphenate-resource) or wide support for it, even using vendor specific dictionaries...
Use spans and script it as you pointed: but it's possible to write a script to do this
It's not a perfect solution, but it satisfies all your criteria and it is crossbrowser
