As Roy mentioned, you don't need jQuery to do this. Plain JavaScript works just fine.

Try: 

if (str.length > 10)
    str = str.substring(0, 10) + '...'

Here's a fiddle.

Another way is to use the ternary operator. It's shorter but not as readable if you aren't used to the ternary syntax:

str = (str.length > 10) ? str.substring(0, 10) + '...' : str;

This is equivalent to the if statement above.
