CSS text- overflow attribute

The text-overflow attribute specifies how text should be displayed when it overflows the element that contains it. After overflow, you can set the text to be cut, to display an ellipsis (...), or to display a custom string (not supported by all browsers).

text-overflow needs to be used with the following two attributes:

  • white-space: nowrap;

  • overflow: hidden ;

Usable attribute values:

Value Description
clip Cut text.
ellipsis Display ellipsis symbols ... to represent trimmed text.
string Use the given string to represent the trimmed text.
initial is set to the property default value.
inherit Inherit this attribute value from the parent element.

CSS white-space attribute

The white-space attribute specifies how to handle whitespace within the element.

Value Description
normal Default. White space is ignored by the browser.
pre Blank spaces will be retained by the browser. It behaves like the
 tag in HTML.

nowrap The text will not wrap, the text will continue on the same line until the
tag is encountered.
pre-wrap Preserves whitespace sequences, but wraps normally.
