How to truncate long string on firefox responsive












-2















I want to make the text display 2 line image below.
image example



It is how's it look like on chrome, but in firefox it don't work. I found this website have tutorial in chrome. Link: https://css-tricks.com/line-clampin/ . It is use -webkit-line-clamp to check at which line we want to add "...". However , on firefox, we don't have tag "-webkit-line-clamp" like this tutorial. So there are have any way to make text truncated on firefox. I had used javascript like below to trim string.



String.prototype.truncString = function(max, add){
add = add || '...';
return (this.length > max ? this.substring(0,max)+add : this);
};
if($(".smaller_768 ").width() < 200 && $(".smaller_768 ") > 120){
trim_content(28);
}
function trim_content(numberofwords){
$(".smaller_768").each(function(){
var content = $.trim($(this).text());
$(this).text(content.truncString(numberofwords, "..."));
});
}


But It doesn't work well we when I change the device because the size of div is changed.



Thank you in advance.

Try to call your function on window resize, using something like this:



$(window).on("resize", function(){
if($(".smaller_768 ").width() < 200 && $(".smaller_768 ") > 120){
trim_content(28);
}
});


Using resize function, it will change the number of string each time you resize your browser
