note 26703 added to function.str-word-count

I tried to use your word counter and it wasn't accurate. This example may not be pretty, but It proves accurate: //count words $words_to_count = strip_tags($body); $pattern = "/[^(\w|\d|\'|\"|\.|\!|\?|;|,|\\|\/|\-\-|:|\&|@)]+/"; $words_to_count = preg_replace ($pattern, " ", $words_to_count); $words_to_count = trim($words_to_count); $total_words = count(explode(" ",$words_to_count)); Hope I didn't miss any punctuation. ;-) -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.str-word-count.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+26703 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+26703 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+26703
