^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
word-wrap? You won't find it here

<http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/propidx.html>

That is an MS thingy..... If OP really wants to force breaking lines
intra-words of user input he needs to process server-side with some
function that counts characters or looks for specific character to break
on like '/' and insert BRs into the markup <= some maximum character
length within the string....
