Note Submitter: Anonymous ---- I tried to use the neat script ben contributed, but for Chinese characters. The characters all finish with a ";" and start with a "&". eg.: 们 So I altered the script to: function cutText($string, $length) { while ($string{$length} != ";") { $length--; } return substr($string, 0, $length); } But doesn't work properly (tried ; and &), the function still cuts after the original $length. Any Ideas?
