User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1) Opera 7.23  [en]
Build Identifier: 

One of my forum users complains that at a low resolution and using the 
mozilla/fb browsers that the dashes don't wrap. Now, this pertains to one users' 
signature, but I think this is an important issue for any page that might use 
dashes. No other browser has this problem and I'm tired of dealing with it as 
I'm sure your user is.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Make dashes ------------------------------------ that will go beyond the page 
bounds
2.View them
3.Get mad that you have to scroll left to right to read something.

Actual Results:  
You have to scroll left to right... which will be undesirable.

Expected Results:  
Wrapped the dashes so that even users with low resolutions can view pages as 
intended if there are indeed many dashes.

I don't know if any other characters do this, but the dashes do. It's worth 
looking into. I don't see a reason for this to stay this way.
