You can look at http://gandi.net. Sometimes in the green block, when
the title of the news (next to the yellow logo) is too long, you can
see an ellipse.
There is a bug with firefox7 nightly. You can look the bug report here
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=669284
I suppose this means, then, that the site is not an example of using
text-overflow: ellipsis. This impression is confirmed by the observation
that the style sheets for the page do not contain such a declaration at all.
So you're effectively saying that due to a bug, Firefox may behave (to
some extent) _as if_ there was such a declaration in the stylesheets.
I haven't seen text-overflow: ellipsis in the wild. There are many uses
one could imagine for it, but typically authors do the truncation (and
add an ellipsis) server-side.
