This JavaScript is a clever way of automatically truncating the text of a paragraph on your web page, without dividing in the middle of a word. You can truncate the text to a length of your choosing. A JavaScript link is added to expand the text.

Label: truncate, HTML text, HTML, paragraph, expand, length, word
