Mozilla text overflow: ellipsis not working

Question

I used the jquery plugin to get the ellipsis in mozilla, but I want to know other methods for getting the ellipsis, because in some cases the plugin was used, which I used with a script error. / ****** edited ********** / I used the plugin

jquery.text-overflow.js 

And the error script asks to disable the script on the page

Answer 1

Firefox / Mozilla does not currently support text-overflow:ellipsis;

Works around - see this question on SO for a detailed answer: how to get text overflow: ellipsis style (...) in mozilla

[EDIT]

Since people are still voting for this old answer, I am adding this note to indicate that this feature was added in Firefox 7, so now it is not relevant to most users. There are a few more FF3.6 users this applies to, but for most of us this is no longer a problem.
