CSS text overflow flexible columb width
recently i was trying to make columb for a bulk text which needs to get hidden like the gmail subject
i used
overflow:hidden;white-spac e:nowrap;
which works perfectly in firefox...but to make it work in IE and firefox i need to use
text-overflow:ellipsis;ove rflow:hidd en;white-s pace:nowra p;width:30 0px;
which again works fine in both but then i dont have a flexible width...for which i tried width:100%; instead of width:300px; but this dosnt work in IE.
can anyone tell me how to emulate the gmail subject columb?
