Hi, if "chunk_split" function split the line of text (here on 50 char) I was wondering if there exists one function who take care if the 50 char is in the middle of the word and split the line first "empty space" before the word or just after? $newstring = chunk_split($row[1], 50, '<br />'); echo $newstring; -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
