Hey,
What I need to be able to do is delete characters off the end of a variable’s value until it is a certain minimum amount of characters, and then add a “…”. So if I made the character limit be 7 and if i mad e the variable value “PointlessThings”, “PointlessThings” would be shortened to “Pointle…”
Thanks,
Nick
have you checked out the string functions … specifically substr_replace.

Thank you so much! I got it all working…
One other question I have related to this:
Is there any way I can just get a character count of a variable, like just have it display the amount of characters in a variable. So if the variable value was “PointlessThings”, the character count would display 15.
