Don't just code it, code it better!

Show part of an article and give the user the option to view more. This keeps your page short and tidy and doesn't distract the user.

Code usage
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
$(".ellipsis_10").Ellipsis({
numberOfCharacters: 10,

showMoreText: "more"
});
});
</script>
<div class="ellipsis_10">
