pacome Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 Hi... I'd like to dinamically trim strings from a page... Lets say I have a string such as: "My web Page" and I want every 5 seconds show one character less of that string... My Web Page 5 seconds after "y Web Page" 5 seconds after " Web Page" 5 seconds after " eb Page" and so on untill the text is finished completely... I'm thinking of using PeriodicalUpdater for it, but I'm not sure how to trim the text each time I call the server... Maybe it's very simple but I'm new to programming and don't know where to start! Any ideas? Thank you!!!! Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/73204-trim-text-dinamically/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
