note 71431 added to function.wordwrap

I wrote this to keep long strings from making my tables wider than the browser window. To lessen the impact on performance, only call this function on strings longer than 'X' characters. // This function will insert the 'wbr' (optional linebreak) tag // to wrap words in $string longer than 10 characters, // but will not break inside HTML tags function mywordwrap($string) { $length = strlen($string); for ($i=0; $i<=$length; $i=$i+1) { $char = substr($string, $i, 1); if ($char == "<") $skip=1; elseif ($char == ">") $skip=0; elseif ($char == " ") $wrap=0; if ($skip==0) $wrap=$wrap+1; $returnvar = $returnvar . $char; if ($wrap>9) // alter this number to set the maximum word length { $returnvar = $returnvar . "<wbr>"; $wrap=0; } } return $returnvar; } ---- Server IP: 216.194.113.175 Probable Submitter: 15.235.137.71 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.wordwrap.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/71431 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71431/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71431/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71431/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71431/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71431/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71431/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/71431 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/71431 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
