This is something ive needed for awhile, a way to limit the length of a string.
<?php
function limit_length($string, $length)
{
$chars = preg_split('//', $string, -1, PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY);
for($i = 0; $i < intval($length); $i++)
{
if(!empty($new_str))
{
$new_str .= $chars[$i];
}
else
{
$new_str = $chars[$i];
}
}
return $new_str;
}
$str = sha1('string');
echo limit_length($str, 32);
?>
32Char SHA1 will trick them anyday ^^
