对于ThinkPHP的截取字符串函数无法显示省略号的情况，解决方法如下：
打开Common/extend.php页面，修改msubstr函数如下：

function msubstr($str, $start=0, $length, $charset="utf-8", $suffix=true)
{
  if(function_exists("mb_substr")) {
   if($suffix)
  {
     if($str==mb_substr($str, $start, $length, $charset)) 
     {
      return mb_substr($str, $start, $length, $charset); 
     }
     else
     {
      return mb_substr($str, $start, $length, $charset)."..."; 
     } 
 }
    else 
 {
   return mb_substr($str, $start, $length, $charset);
  }
  }
  elseif(function_exists("iconv_substr")) {
   if($suffix)
  {
     if($str==iconv_substr($str,$start,$length,$charset)) 
     {
      return iconv_substr($str,$start,$length,$charset); 
     }
     else
     {
      return iconv_substr($str,$start,$length,$charset)."..."; 
     } 
   }
    else 
 {
   return iconv_substr($str,$start,$length,$charset);
  }
  }
  $re["utf-8"]  = "/[x01-x7f]|[xc2-xdf][x80-xbf]|[xe0-xef][x80-xbf]{2}|[xf0-xff][x80-xbf]{3}/";
  $re["gb2312"] = "/[x01-x7f]|[xb0-xf7][xa0-xfe]/";
  $re["gbk"]  = "/[x01-x7f]|[x81-xfe][x40-xfe]/";
  $re["big5"]  = "/[x01-x7f]|[x81-xfe]([x40-x7e]|xa1-xfe])/";
  preg_match_all($re[$charset], $str, $match);
  $slice = join("",array_slice($match[0], $start, $length));
  if($suffix) return $slice."…";
  return $slice;
}
