<p> Front-end development blog focused on front-end development and technology sharing, if the description is more than 100 pixels, it will be hidden, add ellipsis </p>

CSS: Need to add width (width:100px), out of hiding (overflow:hidden;), force to display on the same line (white-space:nowrap;), ellipsis (text-overflow:ellipsis;)

P {width: 100px; overflow: hidden; white-space: nowrap; text-overflow: ellipsis;}

1, text-overflow:ellipsis;

The main style here is text-overflow:ellipsis;

However, Text-ellipsis is a special style, the explanation is this: the Text-overflow property is only annotations, and if the text overflows, the ellipsis is displayed. No other style attribute definitions are available.

The effect of an ellipsis on overflow must also be defined: Force the text to appear on one line (white-space:nowrap) and overflow content as hidden (Overflow:hidden), only in order to achieve the effect of overflow text display ellipsis.

This needs to limit the width, the text is displayed on one line (white-space:nowrap;), and the hidden attribute overflow is used.

Online to support the lower version of opera one way is to-o-text-overflow:ellipsis;

definition : The White-space property sets how to handle whitespace within an element.

Example : The text in a specified paragraph does not wrap:

Pre-wrap	Preserves the sequence of whitespace characters, but wraps them normally.
Pre-line	Merges a sequence of whitespace characters, but preserves newline characters.
Inherit	Specifies that the value of the White-space property should be inherited from the parent element.

Object.style.whitespace=normal|nowrap|pre

1. (IE) consecutive English characters and Arabic numerals, using Word-wrap:break-word; or word-break:break-all; implement force break

2. (Firefox browser) consecutive lines of English characters and Arabic numerals, all versions of Firefox do not solve this problem, we only let the characters beyond the boundary hide or add a scrollbar to the container
. a{word-break:break-all; width:200px; overflow:auto;}

. (Firefox browser) use table-layout:fixed, force table width, inner layer td,th adopt word-break:break-all; or Word-wrap:break-word; newline, use overflow : Hidden; Hide beyond content, here Overflow:auto; not working
