HTML Truncator

"More"/"less" style truncation. Handles HTML gracefully: doesn't split inside HTML entities, doesn't orphan end-tags and so on.

Example usage:

$(function() {
  $('.example').truncate({max_length: 24});
});

Overriding all defaults:

$(function() {
  $('.example').truncate({max_length: 24, more: "plus it", less: "nevermind"});
});

I will try to keep this page up-to-date but may forget. See http://github.com/henrik/jquery.truncator.js for the latest version.
