note 80996 added to function.substr

Needed a method to cut text without cutting in middle of words, so made this little function to iterate back until a whitespace is found, and then cut the text from there. function cutText($string, $length) { while ($string{$length} != " ") { $length--; } return substr($string, 0, $length); } ---- Server IP: 87.54.44.10 Probable Submitter: 85.24.88.162 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.substr.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/80996 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80996/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80996/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80996/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80996/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80996/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80996/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80996 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/80996 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
