Q: 

truncate text based on div size

i have a long MULTILINE text inside a div box and I want to truncate it and put an ellipsis in the end. I thought of truncating it based on characters but when I switched browser (from chrome to firefox), firefox renders the text thicker. :(

Can you help me with this?
