title: Custom text-overflow CSS?
body: <p>I am aware this is possible via Javascript, as I have done it myself. However, as the platform I am building up gets bigger and bigger, I want to take as much JS heavy-load as possible. Furthermore, at this point in time, I think using the CSS text-overflow property is much more do-able as FireFox now supports it as well.</p>
  
  <p>Anyhow, reading the <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en/CSS/text-overflow" rel="noreferrer">text-overflow reference page on MDN</a>, I got curious about that third parameter defined as "string". I do not know whether this refers to "the text-overflow property accepts string values", or if it is a parameter on its own (just like clip and ellipsis).</p>
  
  <p><strong>Essentially, I would just like to know if this <em>string</em> parameter would allow me to generate a custom text-overflow output</strong>, such as <code>" .."</code>. I have tried things like:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li><code>text-overflow: string(" ..");</code></li>
  <li><code>text-overflow: " ..";</code></li>
  <li><code>text-overflow: ellipsis-" ..";</code></li>
  </ul>
