  • 0

I would like to cut off a text if it is too long for the cell and add three dots “…” at the end (no wrapping). The problem is, that I cant just cut the content in java after XX symbols because ‘i’ takes less space than ‘W’, which in turn would look silly.

How can I achiev this (if possible without Java Script) with CSS/java?
Or is that not possible?

Thanks!

    Try CSS: Set a max-width and specify text-overflow with:

    text-overflow: ellipsis;
