Are these solutions based on pixel elements or characters?  i.e. 
setting a span to 300 pixels on my screen may correspond to 90 
characters here, but may correspond to 30 (or 120) characters on 
someone else's screen.  Last night I did some basic searching for a 
solution that would work with characters and didn't come up with 
anything that is not platform-specific (there was some old IE specific 
word-wrap item that seems useless these days, for example).
