How to wrap continuous text without spaces?

CSS: How do I wrap text with no whitespace inside a <td>?

I have a line of text that is hundreds of characters long, and that I need to display on a page.

Because the line is continuous with no spaces, the browser won't wrap the text. My goal is to have the text wrap according to the size of the browser window.

Anyone know how to do this using CSS?

Example code:

<html>
<body>
 <table> <tr><td>
   mffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff</td>      </tr></table>
</body>
</html>
