How can I make this possible?
From this-is-a-very-long-filename.jpg to this-is-a-very-lo [...] .jpg .
I have searched Google for several minutes now but I can't find any solution to this. Do you know how I can do this?
Thanks in advance!

You don't really need jQuery for this, you can use classic javascript:
ReplyDelete<script>
function truncate(n, len) {
var ext = n.substring(n.lastIndexOf(".") + 1, n.length).toLowerCase();
var filename = n.replace('.'+ext,'');
if(filename.length <= len) {
return n;
}
filename = filename.substr(0, len) + (n.length > len ? '[...]' : '');
return filename + '.' + ext;
};
var s = 'this-is-a-very-very-very-long-file-name.jpg';
console.log(truncate(s, 100)); //this-is-a-very-very-very-long-file-name.jpg
console.log(truncate(s, 10)); //this-is-a-[...].jpg
console.log(truncate(s, 4)); //this[...].jpg
</script>
