<title>CSS Text Test: auto hyphen and span</title>
<link rel="author" title="Florian Rivoal" href="http://florian.rivoal.net/">
<link rel="match" href="reference/hyphens-span-002-ref.html">
<meta name="assert" content="the presence of an unstyled inline element has no effect on text in general and on manual hyhenation in particular">
<style>
div {
border: solid orange;
margin: 5px;
width: 6ch;
hyphens: auto;
}
</style>
<p>Test passes if the text in all orange boxes below is identical (including the presence and position of a hyphen).
<div lang=en>highway</div>
<div lang=en><span>high</span>way</div>
<div lang=en>high<span></span>way</div>
<div lang=en>high<span>way</span></div>
<div lang=en><span>high</span><span>way</span></div>
<div lang=en><span>highwa</span>y</div>
<div lang=en><span>hi</span>ghway</div>
<!--
This test assumes the presence of "highway"
with a hyphenation point between "high" and "way"
in the hyphenation dictionary for English
in order to be useful,
but that assumption is not necessary for the test to be correct:
if the word doesn't hyphenate,
it will not hyphenate in any of the cases.
