Like all new CSS specifications, hyphenation is a mess. I spent hours trying to disable hyphens in my titles for an Epub file viewed in Microsoft Edge. I've finally found a solution.

My reference comes from this MDN entry, but you need to note (in typical Microsoft fashion) that the presentation is only complete in its examples, not in its definition.

My title CSS includes all of the following:

-epub-hyphens: none;
-webkit-hyphens: none;
-ms-hyphens: none;
hyphens: none;
adobe-hyphenate: none;

Note that in Microsoft Edge, this only worked with the addition of -ms-hyphens. Honestly, this is so obvious an issue that the learned men and women of the world should have realized that only one would be required and that choosing a prefix that limited its use (predominantly to a company, I'm looking at you Microsoft, Mozilla, and Adobe) would only muddy the waters but not last the test of time.
