Hi,.
I am using this to display text from database within asp:Literal:
<asp:Literal ID="Literal1" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("post_comment_text") %>' ></asp:Literal>
I want to know how can I limit the display to x number of characters with more link to display the full text just like the facebook comments?

Through literal you can not do in css until you putting it into label or span or div. You can truncate your string in your code the you can display here.
If you want to use in css then find very clear example to support most of the browser

when you are binding the values from any source, create another alias in your selection query.
ex: select fullname,left(fullname,20) as shortname from tablename
the 20 mentioned can be of your need.and then bind the shortname to literal.it works.
