Is it possible to make text-overflow: ellipsis; for select? In the divit is simple. When the string is too long there are dots, I need the same in select. I know, that it is possible with js, but I would like to get "light" css decision:
.select {
box-sizing: border-box;
display: block;
width: 200px;
height: 34.5px;
padding: 5px 22px 3px 11px;
font: 400 16px/24px sans-serif;
color: #464a4c;
vertical-align: middle;

}<select class="select">

<option value="1">1 Mississippi Mississippi Mississippi Mississippi Mississippi</option>
<option value="2">2 Mississippi Mississippi Mississippi Mississippi Mississippi</option>
<option value="3">3 Mississippi Mississippi Mississippi Mississippi Mississippi</option>
</select>
<br>
<div class="select">div Mississippi Mississippi Mississippi Mississippi Mississippi</div>Not the cleanest solution but you could always "trick" it, wrapping the select inside a div, and use :after pseudoelement to position a fake ... over the select hidding the content below:
.select {
box-sizing: border-box;
display: block;
width: 200px;
height: 34.5px;
padding: 5px 22px 3px 11px;
font: 400 16px/24px sans-serif;

div {

div:after {

display: block;
background-color: #fff;

position: absolute;
right: 23px;
bottom: 11px;
text-align: center;
pointer-events: none;
}<div>
<select class="select">
<option selected>select Mississippi Mississippi Mississippi Mississippi Mississippi</option>
<option value="1">1 Mississippi Mississippi Mississippi Mississippi Mississippi</option>
<option value="2">2 Mississippi Mississippi Mississippi Mississippi Mississippi</option>
<option value="3">3 Mississippi Mississippi Mississippi Mississippi Mississippi</option>
</select>
</div>I have also added pointer-events: none; to the element so even if you click on it it will still open the select below.
