note 78819 added to function.array-slice

Re: 'cpa at NOSPAM dot conceptivator dot com' and 'gportlock at gembiz dot co dot uk' limitText can be further simplified by adding a limit parameter to the explode function - eliminating the need for the use of array_slice entirely. Note that this only works for extracting the first n words of the string, and not the last. Also, you've mistakenly used array_splice instead of array_slice in your functions. <?php function limitText( $text, $wordCount ) { $wordArray = explode(" ", $text, $wordCount); return implode( " ", $wordArray ); } ?> ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 216.96.169.143 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.array-slice.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/78819 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78819/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78819/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78819/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78819/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78819/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78819/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78819 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/78819 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
