Hide Text

Really long strings of text will never flow into the container because they always flow away from the container. Performance is dramatically improved because a 9999px box is not drawn. Noticeably so in animations on the iPad 1.

Expand | Embed | Plain Text 
  1. .hide-text {
  2. text-indent: 100%;
  3. white-space: nowrap;
  4. overflow: hidden;
  5. }
