Note Submitter: o70vd at yahoo dot com ---- This function sets long string to short string.. for example.. $str = "blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah" then you want to limit you string to 30"->setStringLimit($srt, 0, 30)<- output would is "blah blah blah blah blah blah..." . hehe. Don't really trust the code, Is there any other function that to do same way?. Please teach me. Thankx.Just wanted to test if my code is enough!... tnx. function setStringLimit($str, $start, $until){ return (strlen($str) > $until) ? (substr((substr($str, $start, $until)), $start, (strrpos(substr($str, $start, $until), " ")) )."...") : ($str); }
