When I view articles on the http://thoughtcatalog.com website, the words are broken in the end of the line instead of being properly wrapped. For an example, see this article: http://thoughtcatalog.com/cj-hale/2013/06/12-things-no-one-told-me-about-sex-after-rape/ The word "that" has "t" on one line and "hat" on the next. The word "survivor's" is broken into "su" and "rvivor's". And so on. This happens in Firefox for Android in both Nightly (35) and Release (32) versions. I can also reproduce it in the responsive view on desktop Firefox (31, Fedora 20). It doesn't happen in Chrome.

Please see the compatibility table on https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/word-break#Browser_compatibility @media (max-width:480px){ p{ -ms-word-break:break-all; word-break:break-all; word-break:break-word; white-space:normal } } I assume this is the expected behavior. Am I wrong?

Meh. I guess it is, although: 1. I am not a real CSS expert. 2. It is puzzling why is it different in Chrome. 3. I have no idea why would anybody program their site like that. Points 2 and 3 may be related.
