text-overflow

Text-overflow is a CSS property that specifies how text should be displayed when it overflows the content area of an element. It is often used in combination with the overflow property, which determines how content that exceeds the size of an element's box is displayed.

The text-overflow property can be set to several values, including:

- clip: The text is clipped and not displayed outside the content area of the element.
- ellipsis: The text is clipped and an ellipsis (…) is added to indicate that there is more text that is not visible.
- string: The text is clipped and a specified string is added to indicate that there is more text that is not visible.

This property is especially useful for text-heavy elements, such as headings or paragraphs, where the content may exceed the size of the element. By setting text-overflow to ellipsis, for example, users can easily see that there is more content to read, and can choose to click on the element to view the full text.
