Re: in css, after pseudoclass doesn't work with br tag?



Hi again.

Now you seem to consider only the effect of <br> markup, not line breaks in
general.

I must have confused <br> line breaks with line breaks in general.
Bear with me; my knowledge in these areas isn't very sophisticated as
of yet. For my purposes, though, either one will do.

I'm trying to replace line breaks to create a style*** for extremely
condensed printing. Simply setting br{display:none} comes close to
achieving my goal, but I'm still looking for a way to let the reader
(of the printed ***) know where a line break *would have been* on
the screen version of the document.

That's a very vague idea, and sounds extremely odd. So if there's a
paragraph, hundreds of words long, you would want it to be printed as one
line, with just "|" where a line break would appear in some unspecified
situation.

I haven't thought about this. When I tested printing the document with
br{display:none}, (some of) the line breaks did indeed disappear, but
the text still wrapped around the page. I agree that it would be
useless to eliminate line breaks if there was no text wrapping.

Is there any way for me to replace line breaks with "|" while
preserving text wrapping on the printed page? The document I'm working
on is a small wiki and I can safely assume that everyone printing from
it will be a mozilla user.

Thanks,

--Alex.
