Thanks Al! Of course CSS has an answer! This is even more elegant since mostly I am worried about this when the hyphen is part of a hyperlink. That means that (once I make the plunge to CSS) I can just add the nowrap to my style for Anchors? Too bad I have been using for text that is part a link for a while now...
