A Text Ellipsis jQuery Plugin For Firefox
// A jQuery plugin to enable the text ellipsis in firefox.
// see http://yue.st/notes/code/js/ellipsis.en.html
// usage:
// $('.elementsNeedEllipsis').ellipsis();
// the elements should be block level ('display: block' or 'display: inline-block')
//
// I think you should take care of resize event by yourself,
// just call $('.elem').ellipsis() again after element resized.

$(this).css({'white-space': 'nowrap', 'overflow': 'hidden'});
