I would like to make a question mark icon appear after any <span> that has text-overflow:ellipsis and is currently showing the dots. Is there a way to achieve this?

  • Is not a good practice check a property in order to change some element. The best way is to use a class to identify which `` will have a question mark icon. – lerichard_v Jul 30 '19 at 16:20

You can use a Text overflow string

.overflow-string {
  text-overflow: "..?";
}

But it only works on Firefox 9
