wordwrap help!

Recommended Posts

Hi! I currently have some text that I want to add a line break to every 100 characters.
The problem I have is that the text is inside of a shortcode and I am not sure how to wordwrap it from inside that shortcode.

Here's the code:

<?php echo do_shortcode('[myshortycode]This is the text I want to add line breaks to[/myshortycode]') ?>

Wouldn't it be better to just do that with a css fixed-width container so the text wraps naturally? If you hard chop the text at 100 chars, it will, most likely, cut some words in half. I'd assume you'd want it to only break on spaces and not in the middle of a word. That can of course be done with PHP, but a fixed-width container is a lot simpler.
