Similar to the function seen in online e-mail clients when you click on

Has anybody an idea on how to add a symbol in front of each line?`

Should be simple enough using explode() followed by implode(). thnx, Chris

Hi, actually that is not as easy as it looks. Lets say we want to ad a \n after each 80 characters. There is always the problem what happens if the line has already a \n inside. E.g: This is a sample text. This is a sample text. This is a sample text Should result in:

This is a sample text. This is a sample text. This is a sample text

That looks very complicated to me. Can anybody point me into the right direction? Thanx for any help, Merlin
