See Post # 17 on this thread:

CSS:
Code:
.nowrap {
    text-indent: 0;
    display: inline-block;
}
This span is useful for end-of-line for poetry. Also for dialogue, if you have a ton ending with em dash --- it is so annoying to lose the em dash with closing quote mark onto a new line.

But you should not use the span on long words, as it prevents hyphenation, and might cause large gaps along the right-hand margin.
Thanks, that's a keeper!
