谢谢@balpha和@Kevin，我把两种方法结合在一起。

这个方法不需要js。

你可以使用背景图像和不需要梯度隐藏点。

.ellipsis-placeholder的innerHTML不是必需的，我使用.ellipsis-placeholder来保持与.ellipsis-more相同的宽度和高度。 你可以使用display: inline-block代替。

.ellipsis { overflow: hidden; position: relative; } .ellipsis-more-top {/*push down .ellipsis-more*/ content: ""; float: left; width: 5px; } .ellipsis-text-container { float: right; width: 100%; margin-left: -5px; } .ellipsis-more-container { float: right; position: relative; left: 100%; width: 5px; margin-left: -5px; border-right: solid 5px transparent; white-space: nowrap; } .ellipsis-placeholder {/*keep text around ,keep it transparent ,keep same width and height as .ellipsis-more*/ float: right; clear: right; color: transparent; } .ellipsis-placeholder-top {/*push down .ellipsis-placeholder*/ float: right; width: 0; } .ellipsis-more {/*ellipsis things here*/ float: right; } .ellipsis-height {/*the total height*/ height: 3.6em; } .ellipsis-line-height {/*the line-height*/ line-height: 1.2; } .ellipsis-margin-top {/*one line height*/ margin-top: -1.2em; } .ellipsis-text { word-break: break-all; } <div class="ellipsis ellipsis-height ellipsis-line-height"> <div class="ellipsis-more-top ellipsis-height"></div> <div class="ellipsis-text-container"> <div class="ellipsis-placeholder-top ellipsis-height ellipsis-margin-top"></div> <div class="ellipsis-placeholder"> <span>...</span><span>more</span> </div> <span class="ellipsis-text">text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text </span> </div> <div class="ellipsis-more-container ellipsis-margin-top"> <div class="ellipsis-more"> <span>...</span><span>more</span> </div> </div> </div>

我一直在尝试，直到我成功地实现了接近这个的东西。但有几点需要注意:

It's not pure CSS; you have to add a few HTML elements. There's however no JavaScript required. The ellipsis is right-aligned on the last line. This means that if your text isn't right-aligned or justified, there may be a noticable gap between the last visible word and the ellipsis (depending on the length of the first hidden word). The space for the ellipsis is always reserved. This means that if the text fits in the box almost precisely, it may be unnecessarily truncated (the last word is hidden, although it technically wouldn't have to). Your text needs to have a fixed background color, since we're using colored rectangles to hide the ellipsis in cases where it's not needed.

我还应该注意，文本将在单词边界处断开，而不是字符边界处断开。这是有意为之(因为我认为这对较长的文本更好)，但因为它不同于text-overflow: ellipsis，所以我认为我应该提到它。

如果你可以接受这些警告，HTML看起来是这样的:

<div class="ellipsify">
    <div class="pre-dots"></div>
    <div class="dots">&hellip;</div>
    <!-- your text here -->
    <span class="hidedots1"></span>
    <div class="hidedots2"></div>
</div>

这是相应的CSS，以一个150像素宽的盒子为例，在白色背景上有三行文本。它假设你有一个CSS重置或类似的设置，在必要的地方将边距和填充设置为零。

/* the wrapper */
.ellipsify {
    font-size:12px;
    line-height:18px;
    height: 54px;       /* 3x line height */
    width: 150px;
    overflow: hidden;
    position: relative; /* so we're a positioning parent for the dot hiders */
    background: white;
}

/* Used to push down .dots. Can't use absolute positioning, since that
   would stop the floating. Can't use relative positioning, since that
   would cause floating in the wrong (namely: original) place. Can't 
   change height of #dots, since it would have the full width, and
   thus cause early wrapping on all lines. */
.pre-dots {
    float: right;
    height: 36px;  /* 2x line height (one less than visible lines) */
}

.dots {
    float: right; /* to make the text wrap around the dots */
    clear: right; /* to push us below (not next to) .pre-dots */
}

/* hides the dots if the text has *exactly* 3 lines */
.hidedots1 {
    background: white;
    width: 150px;
    height: 18px;       /* line height */
    position: absolute; /* otherwise, because of the width, it'll be wrapped */
}

/* hides the dots if the text has *less than* 3 lines */
.hidedots2 {
    background: white; 
    width: 150px;
    height: 54px;       /* 3x line height, to ensure hiding even if empty */
    position: absolute; /* ensures we're above the dots */
}

结果如下所示:

为了阐明它是如何工作的，下面是相同的图像，除了.hidedots1用红色突出显示，而.hidedots2用青色突出显示。当没有看不见的文本时，这些矩形隐藏了省略号:

在IE9, IE8(模拟)，Chrome, Firefox, Safari和Opera中测试。IE7不支持。

我发现了一个javascript技巧，但你必须使用字符串的长度。假设你想要3行宽250px，你可以计算每行的长度。

//get the total character length.
//Haha this might vary if you have a text with lots of "i" vs "w"
var totalLength = (width / yourFontSize) * yourNumberOfLines

//then ellipsify
function shorten(text, totalLength) {
    var ret = text;
    if (ret.length > totalLength) {
        ret = ret.substr(0, totalLength-3) + "...";
    }
    return ret;
}

有点晚了，但我想到了，我认为，是一个独特的解决方案。而不是试图通过css技巧或js插入自己的省略号，我想我会试着使用单行限制。所以我复制了每个“行”的文本，只是使用负文本缩进，以确保一行从最后一行停止的地方开始。小提琴

CSS:

#wrapper{
    font-size: 20pt;
    line-height: 22pt;
    width: 100%;
    overflow: hidden;
    padding: 0;
    margin: 0;
}

.text-block-line{
    height: 22pt;
    display: inline-block;
    max-width: 100%;
    overflow: hidden;
    white-space: nowrap;
    width: auto;
}
.text-block-line:last-child{
    text-overflow: ellipsis;
}

/*the follwing is suboptimal but neccesary I think. I'd probably just make a sass mixin that I can feed a max number of lines to and have them avialable. Number of lines will need to be controlled by server or client template which is no worse than doing a character count clip server side now. */
.line2{
    text-indent: -100%;
}
.line3{
    text-indent: -200%;
}
.line4{
    text-indent: -300%;
}

HTML:

<p id="wrapper" class="redraw">
    <span class="text-block-line line1">This text is repeated for every line that you want to be displayed in your element. This example has a max of 4 lines before the ellipsis occurs. Try scaling the preview window width to see the effect.</span>
    <span class="text-block-line line2">This text is repeated for every line that you want to be displayed in your element. This example has a max of 4 lines before the ellipsis occurs. Try scaling the preview window width to see the effect.</span>
    <span class="text-block-line line3">This text is repeated for every line that you want to be displayed in your element. This example has a max of 4 lines before the ellipsis occurs. Try scaling the preview window width to see the effect.</span>
    <span class="text-block-line line4">This text is repeated for every line that you want to be displayed in your element. This example has a max of 4 lines before the ellipsis occurs. Try scaling the preview window width to see the effect.</span>
</p>

更多的细节在小提琴。有一个问题与浏览器回流，我使用JS重绘，这样做检查它，但这是基本概念。任何想法/建议都非常感谢。

这里有很多答案，但我需要的是:

CSS只 面向未来(与时间更加兼容) 不会把单词分开(只在空格上分开)

需要注意的是，它不为不支持-webkit-线夹规则的浏览器(目前是IE, Edge, Firefox)提供省略号，但它确实使用渐变淡出文本。

.clampMe { position: relative; height: 2.4em; overflow: hidden; } .clampMe:after { content: ""; text-align: right; position: absolute; bottom: 0; right: 0; width: 50%; height: 1.2em; /* Just use multiples of the line-height */ background: linear-gradient(to right, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0), rgba(255, 255, 255, 1) 80%); } /* Now add in code for the browsers that support -webkit-line-clamp and overwrite the non-supportive stuff */ @supports (-webkit-line-clamp: 2) { .clampMe { overflow: hidden; text-overflow: ellipsis; display: -webkit-box; -webkit-line-clamp: 2; -webkit-box-orient: vertical; } .clampMe:after { display: none; } } <p class="clampMe">There's a lot more text in here than what you'll ever see. Pellentesque habitant testalotish morbi tristique senectus et netus et malesuada fames ac turpis egestas. Vestibulum tortor quam, feugiat vitae, ultricies eget, tempor sit amet, ante. Donec eu libero sit amet quam egestas semper. Aenean ultricies mi vitae est. Mauris placerat eleifend leo.</p>

你可以在这个CodePen中看到它的运行，你也可以在这里看到Javascript版本(没有jQuery)。

好问题……我希望有一个答案，但这是最近你能得到的CSS。没有省略，但仍然很好用。

overflow: hidden;
line-height: 1.2em;
height: 3.6em;      // 3 lines * line-height
