title: jquery plugins for truncating long text string by container width/height
body: <p>As the title says, I want to truncate user-input text string based on the width and height of a designated container. My specification is to truncate the string, display some message like <code>Read More</code> at the end and when user clicks on it, the text slides down.</p>
  
  <p><strong>UPDATE: Ah! Forgot one thing. It should handle multi-byte characters as well.</strong></p>
  
  <p>Can somebody throw some light on what options do I have? jQuery plugins or some nifty jquery snippet?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks and Regards</p>
