Text-overflow property - css3 ellipsis
Some times when data comes dynamically it may fall outside the element’s rendering box. CSS3
 provides a great convenience when it comes to truncating too-long text:
 the text-overflow property,this property allows the clipped content to 
be 
visually represented by the string “…” (called an “ellipsis”) in the 
non-clipped area. Most modern browsers already support the CSS3 
text-overflow property, 
which will automatically calculate the right place to truncate text, and
 add the ellipsis (except in Firefox). It works for Internet Explorer, 
Safari, Chrome and Opera.

-o-text-overflow: ellipsis is how to make it work in Opera. 
This works from at least Opera 9.0.
