title: limiting text to only two lines
body: <p>I want to limit the text to a fixed number of lines for a table of 150px width in html email, for example:</p>
  
  
  
  <pre class="lang-none prettyprint-override"><code>Long text continues down the road into a lane and doesn't stop there
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I want it to look like this:</p>
  
  <pre class="lang-none prettyprint-override"><code>Long text continues down 
  the road into a lane and...
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am truncating the string for a max of 45 characters including ellipsis, but sometimes when a long word is present it goes to three lines:</p>
  
  <pre class="lang-none prettyprint-override"><code>Long text continues at
  accelerating speed into the
  road...
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Ideally I would like to break the word accelerating or rather fill as many characters it can in the first line and continue to second line, is there a way to do this in html? (I looked at the word-wrap but apparently it is not supported in all email clients)</p>
  
  <p>Also since this is email clients, I can't do any javascript etc. also.</p>
