title: jQuery: shorten string length to fit a set width
body: <p>I have a table, and in each cell I want to place strings, but they are much wider than the cell width. To prevent line break, I would like to shorten the strings to fit the cell, and append '...' at end to indicate that the string is much longer.</p>
  
  <p>The table has about 40 rows and has to be done to each cell, so its important that its a quick. Should I use JS/jQuery for this?</p>
  
  <p>How would I do it?</p>
  
  <p>Thank you for your time.</p>
  
  <p>Kind regards,<br />
  Marius</p>
