工作示例:http://jsfiddle.net/tdpLdqpo/1/

HTML:

<h1 id="test1">
    How wide is this text?
</h1>
<div id="result1"></div>
<hr/>
<p id="test2">
    How wide is this text?
</p>
<div id="result2"></div>
<hr/>
<p id="test3">
    How wide is this text?<br/><br/>

</p>
<div id="result3"></div>

JavaScript代码:

function getTextWidth(text, font) {
    var canvas = getTextWidth.canvas ||
        (getTextWidth.canvas = document.createElement("canvas"));
    var context = canvas.getContext("2d");
    context.font = font;
    var metrics = context.measureText(text);
    return metrics.width;
};

$("#result1")
.text("answer: " +
    getTextWidth(
             $("#test1").text(),
             $("#test1").css("font")) + " px");

$("#result2")
    .text("answer: " +
        getTextWidth(
             $("#test2").text(),
             $("#test2").css("font")) + " px");

$("#result3")
    .text("answer: " +
        getTextWidth(
             $("#test3").text(),
             $("#test3").css("font")) + " px");

没有jQuery:

String.prototype.width = function (fontSize) {
    var el,
        f = fontSize + " px arial" || '12px arial';
    el = document.createElement('div');
    el.style.position = 'absolute';
    el.style.float = "left";
    el.style.whiteSpace = 'nowrap';
    el.style.visibility = 'hidden';
    el.style.font = f;
    el.innerHTML = this;
    el = document.body.appendChild(el);
    w = el.offsetWidth;
    el.parentNode.removeChild(el);
    return w;
}

// Usage
"MyString".width(12);

用下面的样式创建一个DIV。在JavaScript中，设置你要测量的字体大小和属性，将字符串放入DIV中，然后读取DIV的当前宽度和高度，它将拉伸以适应内容，大小将在字符串渲染大小的几个像素内。

var fontSize = 12; var test = document.getElementById(" test "); test.style.fontSize = fontSize; Var高度= (test。clientHeight + 1) + "px"; Var宽度=(测试。clientWidth + 1) + "px" console.log(高度、宽度); #测试 ｛ 位置:绝对的; 可见性:隐藏; 高度:汽车; 宽度:汽车; 空白:nowrap;}/*感谢Herb Caudill的评论*/ ｝ < div id = "测试" > abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ < / div >

我使用文本度量包。工作真的很好，我尝试了这个解决方案，但在某些原因，它计算错误。

textMetrics.init(document.querySelector('h1'), { fontSize: '20px' });

textMetrics.init({
  fontSize: '14px',
  lineHeight: '20px',
  fontFamily: 'Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif',
  fontWeight: 400,
  width: 100,
});

var textWidth = (function (el) {
    el.style.position = 'absolute';
    el.style.top = '-1000px';
    document.body.appendChild(el);

    return function (text) {
        el.innerHTML = text;
        return el.clientWidth;
    };
})(document.createElement('div'));

下面的代码片段，“计算”span标签的宽度，如果它太长，就添加“…”，并减少文本长度，直到它适合它的父标签(或者直到它尝试了超过1000次)

CSS

div.places {
  width : 100px;
}
div.places span {
  white-space:nowrap;
  overflow:hidden;
}

HTML

<div class="places">
  <span>This is my house</span>
</div>
<div class="places">
  <span>And my house are your house</span>
</div>
<div class="places">
  <span>This placename is most certainly too wide to fit</span>
</div>

JavaScript(使用jQuery)

// loops elements classed "places" and checks if their child "span" is too long to fit
$(".places").each(function (index, item) {
    var obj = $(item).find("span");
    if (obj.length) {
        var placename = $(obj).text();
        if ($(obj).width() > $(item).width() && placename.trim().length > 0) {
            var limit = 0;
            do {
                limit++;
                                    placename = placename.substring(0, placename.length - 1);
                                    $(obj).text(placename + "...");
            } while ($(obj).width() > $(item).width() && limit < 1000)
        }
    }
});
