<![CDATA[
and display only part of it (like a description) without cutting words in half
function smart_text ($text_input_var[string] ,text_length[int])
{
$strip_content=stripslashes($content);
$all_content=strlen("$strip_content");
$standard_content=substr($strip_content ,$text_length);
$compare=stristr($standard_content ," ");
$minus_content=strlen("$compare");
$result_content=$all_content-$minus_content;
$display_content=substr($strip_content ,0, $result_content);
$striped_content=stripslashes($display_content);
echo nl2br($striped_content);
}
For example i insert a 300 words test but only want about 3 rows of it to be displayed
without cutting words in half.
function smart_text($text,200)
Displayed result will be the first 200 letters of the text plus the letters till the first space
char.
