Solarpitch Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 Hey, You know when your displaying info on a page from the DB and you want to limit it to a certain number of characters . . . ie. "This is an example text to show you" but you want to limit it to say 20 characters "This is an example text..." Just like the subject in this form is displayed! It limits the amount of text it displays in your subject! Hope you get me cheers, Ger Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/54925-the-dot-dot-dot-thing/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
