ohdang888 Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 i've got this script that calls comments onto the page. These comments vary in length, And i want a comment that would like this... jasdfjkdjsaklfjkdsfjjksdjfklsdjfkladjsfklajsdkfljfaklsdjfklasdfjakl;sfjaklsjfaklsdf to like like this: asdfasdfasfasdf asdfasdfadsfag gghsrgregasdg adsfadsfadsfad But before i display it, i make the html invalid....

ohdang888 Posted April 2, 2008 Author Share Posted April 2, 2008 like i said... i did.... And when users have a long comment, it stretches the page.... I want to stop that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxudaskin Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 <div style="overflow:scroll;height:400px"><?php echo $text; ?></div> That way the text will scroll in the DIV tag, but not make the page long... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teng84 Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 or this... $string = 'sdfsdfsdfsdffsfsdfhsfghsdafkhasd;flkhasdfhsadfhsadfhsdafhas;;fsirtseafsdf'; $len = strlen($string); $strlen = 5; for($x = $strlen; $x<=$len; $x+$strlen){ if($x == 5){ echo substr($len,0,$x).'<br/>'; }else{ echo substr($len,$x-5,$x).'<br/>'; } } not tested i dont have php here but that should give you an idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
