Hi,

you can use [url=http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.substr.php]substr[/url] function:

string substr ( string string, int start [, int length] )

And of you want to show only a part of the user name you can make like this:

$username = substr($username, 1, 15);

Hope this is what you ment.

$ft->assign(array(
                  "NM_NAME"     =>        [b]substr(1, 15, $dbu->f('username'))[/b],
                  "NM_GENDER"     =>        $dbu->f('gender'),

                 )
           );

This should work ok.
Otherwise you can make this change in the HTML output, this should be in the [b]$dbu[/b] or in [b]$ft[/b] object.

Hi,

sorry I made a small mistake in usage of the function:

"NM_NAME"    =>        substr($dbu->f('username'), 0, 15),
