How to change line break order when using bidi-override and right-to-left direction with CSS?
I'm using a little script which hides mail addresses using the fact that you can reverse text by using unicode-bidi: bidi-override
and direction: rtl
.
<span>
<span>moc.e</span>
<span>ussi-</span>
<span>kaerb</span>
<span>-enil</span>
<span>@sser</span>
<span>dda-l</span>
<span>iam-t</span>
<span>set</span>
</span>
With the following output:
test-mail-address@line-break-issue.com
Unfortunately, this doesn't work when the mail address is too long and contains a line-break:
The reverse text direction causes that the end of the mail address comes before the line break:
-break-issue.com
test-mail-address@line
Check out the code snippet:
div {
display: inline-block;
margin: 0 10px 10px 0;
padding: 10px;
vertical-align: top;
font-size: small;
}
.small {
border: 1px solid red;
width: 170px;
}
.big {
border: 1px solid green;
width: 280px;
}
strong {
display: block;
margin-bottom: 30px;
}
span.eeb-rtl {
unicode-bidi: bidi-override !important;
direction: rtl !important;
display: inline !important;
}
span.eeb-rtl span.eeb-sd {
display: inline !important;
padding-left: 0 !important;
}
<div class="small">
<strong>Small container</strong>
<span class="eeb eeb-rtl">
<span class="eeb-sd">moc.e</span><span class="eeb-sd">ussi-</span><span class="eeb-sd">kaerb</span><span class="eeb-sd">-enil</span><span class="eeb-sd">@sser</span><span class="eeb-sd">dda-l</span><span class="eeb-sd">iam-t</span><span class="eeb-sd">set</span>
</span>
</div>
<div class="big">
<strong>Big container</strong>
<span class="eeb eeb-rtl">
<span class="eeb-sd">moc.e</span><span class="eeb-sd">ussi-</span><span class="eeb-sd">kaerb</span><span class="eeb-sd">-enil</span><span class="eeb-sd">@sser</span><span class="eeb-sd">dda-l</span><span class="eeb-sd">iam-t</span><span class="eeb-sd">set</span>
</span>
</div>
Is there any CSS option to correct the line breaking order in a small container?
The result should be:
test-mail-address@line-
break-issue.com
