Ok, blatently obvious BUT it might stump some people (it had me scratching my head, before kicking myself over the stupidity...) $foo = "lalalallalaa this is some text lalala"; echo sizeof($foo); this will print a 1 .... sizeof does not do string lengths - use strlen: $foo = "lalalallalaa this is some text lalala"; echo strlen($foo); -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.sizeof.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+29793 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+29793 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+29793
