User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0 The HTML 4.01 allows the use of soft hypen (http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/struct/text.html#h-9.3.3) represented by the character entity reference ­ (­ or ­). This character doesn't seem to be managed by Firefox. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go on a page with a very long word which contains soft hyphen. 2. Reduce the width of the window 3. Actual Results: The word is displayed in only one line and the hypens are not displayed. Expected Results: Browsers that interpret soft hyphens must observe the following semantics: If a line is broken at a soft hyphen, a hyphen character must be displayed at the end of the first line. If a line is not broken at a soft hyphen, the user agent must not display a hyphen character. For operations such as searching and sorting, the soft hyphen should always be ignored.
