Subject: limit <cfoutput>
Does anyone know a way to limit the length of the output from <cfoutput>
tag? I have a data field from db that is that set to MEMO, obviously it's
more then 255 char. but I would like to only display the first 255 char. and
add a "read more..." link to redirect it to a more descript page.
thanks
corey
