The problem with your code is that if you don't specify a line-height, the line-height
default value is normal
.
$(function() {
var divheight = $("#startegy-sections-targeting-exclude").height();
var lineheight = parseInt($("#startegy-sections-targeting-exclude").css('line-height'), 10);
console.log("Number of lines:", Math.round(divheight / lineheight));
});
#startegy-sections-targeting-exclude {
line-height: 20px;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="startegy-sections-targeting-exclude">

</div>
you should not use $("#startegy-sections-targeting-exclude").css('line-height');
if you haven't specified a line-height. in javascript you can use this :
var element = document.getElementById('startegy-sections-targeting-exclude');
var lineheight = document.defaultView.getComputedStyle(element, null).getPropertyValue("lineHeight");
You can use the ThreeDots plugin for jQuery: http://tpgblog.com/2009/12/21/threedots-the-jquery-ellipsis-plugin/
When calling ThreeDots()
on your <div>
, set max_rows
to 4
. Just look at the examples on that page, you can also set your custom "read more" link. But beware that you have to wrap your text into an extra <span>
, like so:
<div class="text_here">
<span class="ellipsis_text">
your text
</span>
</div>
... the jQuery code line would then be:
$('.text_here').ThreeDots({ max_rows:4 });
