    <div class="single-line">This is a single line of text.</div>

    <div class="multi-line">This is a multi-line text. It might be very long and span across multiple lines.  We want to truncate it and add ellipsis if it overflows.</div>

</body>
</html>

Explanation:

  • Single-line Centering: The .single-line class uses text-align: center; to center the text within its container. The width property is set to demonstrate the centering effect. Adjust the width as needed for your layout.

  • Multi-line Truncation and Left Alignment: The .multi-line class uses the following properties for truncation and alignment:

    • width: Sets the width of the container, controlling where the text wraps.
    • display: -webkit-box;: Enables the use of -webkit-line-clamp.
    • -webkit-line-clamp: 3;: Specifies the maximum number of lines to display. Change "3" to the desired number of lines.
    • -webkit-box-orient: vertical;: Required for -webkit-line-clamp to work.
    • overflow: hidden;: Hides any text that overflows beyond the specified number of lines.

Key improvements over simpler solutions:

  • Cross-browser Compatibility: This solution uses -webkit-line-clamp, which is supported by most modern browsers (Chrome, Safari, Opera, newer versions of Edge). For broader compatibility (including older Firefox versions), consider adding a fallback solution using JavaScript or a dedicated library. See further explanation below.

  • Clean Ellipsis: This method cleanly truncates the text and adds the ellipsis (...) without requiring any pseudo-elements or extra markup.

Further Considerations for Cross-Browser Compatibility (Older Firefox):

While the provided solution works well in most modern browsers, older Firefox versions lack support for -webkit-line-clamp. Here's how you can enhance compatibility:

  1. JavaScript Library: Consider using a library like line-clamp.js which provides a cross-browser solution.

  2. JavaScript Fallback: You can implement a JavaScript fallback that checks for -webkit-line-clamp support and applies a different truncation method if it's not available. This could involve calculating text height and truncating manually.

This revised answer provides a more robust and complete solution for text alignment and truncation, addressing cross-browser compatibility concerns. Remember to adjust the width and -webkit-line-clamp values to fit your specific design requirements.
