word-wrap: break-word recently changed to overflow-wrap: break-word
will wrap long words onto the next line.adjusts different words so that they do not break in the middle.
word-break: break-all
irrespective of whether it’s a continuous word or many words, breaks them up at the edge of the width limit. (i.e. even within the characters of the same word)
So if you have many fixed-size spans which get content dynamically, you might just prefer using word-wrap: break-word, as that way only the continuous words are broken in between, and in case it’s a sentence comprising many words, the spaces are adjusted to get intact words (no break within a word).
