Well this is a script I wrote, what it does is chop up long words with malicious meaning into
several parts. This way, a chat in a table will not get stretched anymore.
<?php
function text($string,$limit=20,$chop=10){
$text = explode(" ",$string);
while(list($key, $value) = each($text)){
$length = strlen($value);
if($length >=20){
for($i=0;$i<=$length;$i+=10){
$new .= substr($value, $i, 10);
$new .= " ";
}
$post .= $new;
}
elseif($length <=15){
$post .= $value;
}
$post .= " ";
}
return($post);
}
// for example, this would return:
$output = text("Well this text doesn't get cut up, yet thisssssssssssssssssssssssss one
does.", 10, 5);
echo($output); // "Well this text doesn't get cup up, yet thiss sssss sssss sssss sssss
sss one does."
?>
I hope it was useful.. :)
