<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8"> 
<title>php中文网(php.cn)</title>
<style> 
p.test
{
width:11em; 
border:1px solid #000000;
word-wrap:break-word;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<p class="test"> This paragraph contains a very long word: thisisaveryveryveryveryveryverylongword. The long word will break and wrap to the next line.</p>
</body>
</html>
