如果使用Ext.js，可以使用Ext.util.Format.ellipsis函数。

如果你想用css而不是JavaScript;

.textShortDesc { /*Here we have determined the max number of lines.*/
    display: block; /* or inline-block */
    -o-text-overflow: ellipsis; /* Opera < 11*/
    text-overflow: ellipsis; /* IE, Safari (WebKit), Opera >= 11, FF > 6 */
    word-wrap: break-word;
    overflow: hidden;
    max-height: 2em; /*max-height/line-height=rowCount */
    line-height: 1em;
}

聪明的地方:D

//My Huge Huge String let tooHugeToHandle = `It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).` //Trim Max Length const maxValue = 50 // The barber. const TrimMyString = (string, maxLength, start = 0) => { //Note - `start` is if I want to start after some point of the string if (string.length > maxLength) { let trimmedString = string.substr(start, maxLength) return ( trimmedString.substr( start, Math.min(trimmedString.length, trimmedString.lastIndexOf(' ')) ) + ' ...' ) } return string } console.log(TrimMyString(tooHugeToHandle, maxValue))

所有现代浏览器现在都支持一个简单的CSS解决方案，当一行文本超过可用宽度时自动添加省略号:

p {
    white-space: nowrap;
    overflow: hidden;
    text-overflow: ellipsis;
}

(请注意，这需要以某种方式限制元素的宽度，以便产生任何效果。)

基于https://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/truncate-string-with-ellipsis/。

应该注意的是，这种方法并不基于字符的数量进行限制。如果需要允许多行文本，它也不能工作。

修正Kooilnc的解决方案:

String.prototype.trunc = String.prototype.trunc ||
  function(n){
      return this.length>n ? this.substr(0,n-1)+'…' : this.toString();
  };

如果不需要截断string对象，则返回string值而不是string对象。

在我看来，C_harm的答案是最好的。请注意，如果你想使用

"My string".truncate(n)

您将不得不使用regexp对象构造函数而不是文字。此外，在转换\S时还必须转义它。

String.prototype.truncate =
    function(n){
        var p  = new RegExp("^.{0," + n + "}[\\S]*", 'g');
        var re = this.match(p);
        var l  = re[0].length;
        var re = re[0].replace(/\s$/,'');

        if (l < this.length) return re + '&hellip;';
    };
