Lytheum Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 Just need help with a few things. I have a comments system. In this comment system, people can enter certain strings, and it will break my page layout. Such as repeated characters with no spaces. It will just blow the table way out of proportion and completely ruin my layout. How can I break their input up if such a thing happens? Also, how can you number an array of data that is being withdrawn from the database DESC? Such as.. 1. itemnumber1 2. itemnumber2 3. itemnumber3 4. itemnumber4 Thanks for any help!

DanDaBeginner Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 try this code 'substr ( string string, int start [, int length] )' to chop down the comment or if you dont like to chopdown the comment maybe instead of using a table use a div-float that is CSS or maybe put a character limit that can be type by the user in the comment.. about the DESC you use "SELECT * FROM table ORDER BY itemnumber" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
