The Hyphenation JavaScript Companion

While browser sup­port for hyphen­ation has come a long way, many older browsers fail mis­er­ably. This javascript code removes hyphen­ation from unco­op­er­a­tive browsers.

You can down­load the Hyphen­ation JavaScript Com­pan­ion or view the code.

To impli­ment this code, save the file to the main direc­tory of your web site as dehyphen.js and include the fol­low­ing code in the head of the HTML for each hyphen­ated page:

<script type="text/javascript" src="/dehyphen.js"></script>

wp-Hyphenate – automatic WordPress hyphenation

KINGdesk web design has developed a WordPress plugin with this same technology that automatically hyphenates all published content. Find out more at the wp-Hyphenate home page.
