jquery truncate plugin

Question

Is there a jquery truncate plugin that doesn't have trouble with HTML in the content?

For instance this plugin does not handle HTML well:

Answer 1

I'm assuming you've got the most recent version.

There's a couple more here which might may help. Can't comment on their suitability, though:

Answer 2

Badonkatrunc supports nested content in a non-destructive manner.

(Full disclosure: I am the developer of the plugin.)

Answer 3

Truncate plugin is good, but for my use it didn't handle p tags well enough for the read more link to reside inline.

I found success with this one: http://henrik.nyh.se/2008/02/jquery-html-truncate
