Multiline Ellipsis Error in IE8 jquery
<p>My little multiline ellipsis jquery (...) doesn't want to work in IE8 as is. It works great in IE9, Firefox, Chrome. I need assistance solving this problem for the IE8.</p>

<p>I created a jsfiddle to give you a demo if you would help me out: <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/9GSWY/" rel="nofollow">http://jsfiddle.net/9GSWY/</a></p>

<pre><code>var myTag = $('.description').text();
if (myTag.length &gt; 100) {
var truncated = myTag.trim().substring(0, 100).split(" ").slice(0, -1).join(" ") + "...";
$('.description').text(truncated); // truncate multiline blog viewlet with ellipsis 
}
</code></pre>

<p>Using IE8, it returns this error "Option doesn't support this property or method" and it points to this line:</p>

<pre><code>var truncated = myTag.trim().substring(0, 100).split(" ").slice(0, -1).join(" ") + "...";
</code></pre>
