An easy function to make sure the words in a sentence is not above the maximum lengt of characters. This is used to prevent that users posting for an example comments on your page and drag the page width out. Returns true or false <?php function wordlength($txt, $limit) { $words = explode(' ', $txt); foreach($words as $v) { if(strlen($v) > $limit) { return false; } } return true; } ?> Uses like this: <?php $txt = "Onelongword and some small ones"; if(!wordlength($txt, 10)) { die("One of the words where too long"); } ?> That will return false since one of the words in $txt is too long.
