Considering the following HTML structure:
<div>
<span>foo</span>
<span>bar</span>
<span>some really long text with word breaks</span>
<span>baz</span>
</div>
Upon rendering, it currently displays as:
foo bar some really long text with word breaks baz
The desired display format is:
foo bar some really
long text with word
breaks baz
In exploring solutions to achieve this layout modification, various resources were consulted including:
- Make text wrap inside an absolutely positioned div
- CSS word-wrapping in div
Although successful when directly styling the text within a <div>, difficulties arise when attempting to replicate this behavior with text distributed across multiple <span> elements.
In light of these constraints, where direct alterations to the <span> arrangement are not feasible, what alternative approaches can be employed to address this issue?
UPDATE:
Presently, the CSS properties applied to the <div> in Chrome web inspector are as follows:
color: rgb(0, 105, 173);
display: block;
font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
font-size: 25px;
font-weight: bold;
height: 93px;
margin-bottom: 0px;
margin-left: 208px;
margin-right: 208px;
margin-top: 0px;
text-align: center;
text-shadow: rgb(255, 255, 255) 0px 0px 3px;
width: 300px;
