Hyphenation Plugin

Automatic Content Hyphenation for Joomla 1.5.

This Plugin hyphenates every word in your content and inserts the HTML-Hyphen-Character '­'. Your Browser is now able to hyphenate the words when necessary.
You can configure the following settings:

* the language (hyphenation rules are language-specific)
* minimum number of characters before first hyphenation
* minimum number of characters after last hyphenation
* minimum length of words to hyphenate
* HTML-Tags, whose content should be ignored
* user defined hyphenations (the automatic one works mostly, but not always)

Very usefull plugin, if you have justification content

New in Version 1.1
- Fixed typos in XML-File (thanks to Achim Unland)
- It's now possible to activate or deactivate the plugin in your content.

Great tool for fixing justification problems. Takes text and auto hyphenates, based on precise settings. Especially good for websites with 'tight' layouts that need to make use of all available space and still look neat. Easy to install and configure.
Noticed it adds softhypen ­ marks throughout the html so eg walking becomes walk­ing. Might be a problem for seo as your keyword (afaik) would get treated as two separate words with a softhypen in the middle of it in some of the browsers.

Quick install, works almost perfect. I did not find any possibilty to hyphenate headings and text in modules. But in the articles text and the preview (e. g. on the frontpage) works very very well. I tried the german verion.

Quick install and no problems, up and running in only a few minutes. Was looking for a plugin to help fix problems with displaying text in justify, this is perfect!
