apollo168 Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 I also posted this in the PHP Help thread, but I have a feeling it's going to get run to the bottom before anyone can help... http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php/topic,134055.0.html Basically I have some text that has HTML tags in it. I want to truncate the text (for previewing articles), but if I just use substr() it will truncate in the middle of HTML tags. That's not good when the text gets displayed. I don't know too much about regex, but I imagine it could prove useful in this situation. I would like to get the text truncated to 320 characters of plain text, not including HTML tags. Does anyone have any ideas how to do this? Am I missing a tutorial out there somewhere? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
effigy Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 The same ideas from here should apply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
