我在YouTube的主页上看了一下它是如何解决这个问题的，并进行了简化:

.multine-ellipsis {
  -webkit-box-orient: vertical;
  display: -webkit-box;
  -webkit-line-clamp: 2;
  overflow: hidden;
  text-overflow: ellipsis;
  white-space: normal;
}

这将允许2行代码，然后附加一个省略号。

我只是在这个概念上玩了一下。基本上，如果你可以从你的最后一个字符中删除一个像素，这里是一个纯css和html的解决方案:

其工作方式是将一个div绝对定位在视口的可视区域之下。我们希望随着内容的增长，div向上偏移到可见区域。如果内容增长太多，我们的div将偏移过高，所以我们的内容可以增长的高度的上限。

HTML:

<div class="text-container">
  <span class="text-content">
    PUT YOUR TEXT HERE
    <div class="ellipsis">...</div> // You could even make this a pseudo-element
  </span>
</div>

CSS:

.text-container {
    position: relative;
    display: block;
    color: #838485;
    width: 24em;
    height: calc(2em + 5px); // This is the max height you want to show of the text. A little extra space is for characters that extend below the line like 'j'
    overflow: hidden;
    white-space: normal;
}

.text-content {
  word-break: break-all;
  position: relative;
  display: block;
  max-height: 3em;       // This prevents the ellipsis element from being offset too much. It should be 1 line height greater than the viewport 
}

.ellipsis {
  position: absolute;
  right: 0;
  top: calc(4em + 2px - 100%); // Offset grows inversely with content height. Initially extends below the viewport, as content grows it offsets up, and reaches a maximum due to max-height of the content
  text-align: left;
  background: white;
}

我已经在Chrome、FF、Safari和IE 11上进行了测试。

你甚至可以用一些CSS魔术来缓解字符的突然切断。

编辑:我猜这强加的一件事是word-break: break-all，否则内容不会扩展到视口的最末端。：(

A towel, it says, is about the most massivelyuseful thing an interstellar hitch hiker can have. Partly it has great practical value - you can wrap it around you for warmth as you bound across the cold moons of Jaglan Beta; you can lie on it on the brilliant marble-sanded beaches of Santraginus V, inhaling the heady sea vapours; you can sleep under it beneath the stars which shine so redly on the desert world of Kakrafoon; use it to sail a mini raft down the slow heavy river Moth; wet it for use in hand-to-hand-combat; wrap it round your head to ward off noxious fumes or to avoid the gaze of the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal (a mindboggingly stupid animal, it assumes that if you can't see it, it can't see you - daft as a bush, but very ravenous); you can wave your towel in emergencies as a distress signal, and of course dry yourself off with it if it still seems to be clean enough. More importantly, a towel has immense psychological value. For some reason, if a strag (strag: non-hitch hiker) discovers that a hitch hiker has his towel with him, he will automatically assume that he is also in possession of a toothbrush, face flannel, soap, tin of biscuits, flask, compass, map, ball of string, gnat spray, wet weather gear, space suit etc., etc. Furthermore, the strag will then happily lend the hitch hiker any of these or a dozen other items that the hitch hiker might accidentally have "lost". What the strag will think is that any man who can hitch the length and breadth of the galaxy, rough it, slum it, struggle against terrible odds, win through, and still knows where his towel is is clearly a man to be reckoned with.</p>

如果您想对单行文本应用省略号(…)，CSS通过text-overflow属性使之变得有些容易。这仍然有点棘手(由于所有的要求-请参阅下面)，但文本溢出使它成为可能和可靠的。

然而，如果您想在多行文本上使用省略号——就像这里的情况一样——那么就别指望有什么乐趣了。CSS没有标准的方法来做到这一点，而且变通方法是随机的。

单行文本的省略

使用文本溢出，省略号可以应用于单行文本。CSS的要求如下:

必须有一个宽度，最大宽度或弹性基础 必须有空白:nowrap 必须有溢出的值而不是可见的 必须显示:块或内联块 (或功能对等物，如伸缩项目)。

这是可行的:

p { width: 200px; white-space: nowrap; overflow: hidden; display: inline-block; text-overflow: ellipsis; border: 1px solid #ddd; margin: 0; } <p> This is a test of CSS <i>text-overflow: ellipsis</i>. This is a test of CSS <i>text-overflow: ellipsis</i>. This is a test of CSS <i>text-overflow: ellipsis</i>. This is a test of CSS <i>text-overflow: ellipsis</i>. This is a test of CSS <i>text-overflow: ellipsis</i>. This is a test of CSS <i>text-overflow: ellipsis</i>. </p>

但是，尝试删除宽度，或让溢出默认为可见，或删除空白:nowrap，或使用块容器元素以外的东西，AND，省略号失败得很惨。

这里有一个重要的结论:text-overflow:省略号对多行文本没有影响。(仅white-space: nowrap要求就消除了这种可能性。)

p { width: 200px; /* white-space: nowrap; */ height: 90px; /* new */ overflow: hidden; display: inline-block; text-overflow: ellipsis; border: 1px solid #ddd; margin: 0; } <p> This is a test of CSS <i>text-overflow: ellipsis</i>. This is a test of CSS <i>text-overflow: ellipsis</i>. This is a test of CSS <i>text-overflow: ellipsis</i>. This is a test of CSS <i>text-overflow: ellipsis</i>.

多行文本的省略

因为CSS在多行文本上没有省略号属性，所以创建了各种变通方法。这些方法可以在这里找到:

jQuery dotdotdot…… 行截断(截断多行文本) CSS省略:如何在纯CSS中管理多行省略 多行文本截断的纯CSS解决方案

上面的Mobify链接被删除了，现在引用了archive.org的副本，但似乎在这个代码依赖中实现了。

增加-webkit-线夹:4;增加行数:

p { 显示： -网络套件盒; 最大宽度：200px; -网络套件线夹： 4; -网络套件盒方向：垂直; 溢出：隐藏; } <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet， novum menandri adrivalrium ad vim， ad his persius nostrud conclusionemque.Ne qui atomorum pericula honestatis.Te usu quaeque detracto， idque nulla pro ne， ponderum invidunt eu duo.Vel velit tincidunt in， nulla bonorum id eam， vix ad fastidii consequat definitionem.</p>

线夹是一种专有的无文档的CSS (webkit): https://caniuse.com/#feat=css-line-clamp，所以它目前只适用于少数浏览器。

删除重复的“显示”属性+删除不必要的“文本溢出:省略号”。
