Question

I know that there is a non breaking whitespace -  . Is there a non-breaking dash (-) I can use so that my word doesn't wrap (break) at that location. Also can someone point me to a list with characters that are considered with priority when breaking a sentence ( like a whitespace). Thanks in advance :)

Accepted Answer

Use ‑ instead of -, see the following example:

.box {
  border:1px solid #000;
  width:40px;
  word-wrap:normal;
}

<div class="box">
  This is a test&#8209;case / test-case
</div>
