Re: [PHP] substr() on part an ereg() capture
Forgot to mention this is to be run after eregi_replace(([[:alnum:]]+)://([^[:space:]]*)([[:alnum:]#?/=]), a href=\\\1://\\2\\3\ {$t}\\\1://\\2\\3/a, $str); as it only replaces long strings within a tags Marek Kilimajer wrote: $str = preg_replace('|(a[^]*[^]{55})[^]+(/a)|','$1...$2', $str); Justin French wrote: Hi, I have this ereg to turn URLs into links: eregi_replace(([[:alnum:]]+)://([^[:space:]]*)([[:alnum:]#?/=]), a href=\\\1://\\2\\3\ {$t}\\\1://\\2\\3/a, $str); ... found it in the manual i think, or maybe on weberdev.com examples Anyhoo, it places the whole link in between the a... and /a, which is fine for short links, but on longer links (in my case, around 60+ chars), it messes with my table or CSS layout. So, I'd like to subtr() the 2nd capture part down to 55 chars or something IF it's longer than 60, and append a ... to it. ANY ideas on how this is done? Or is this beyond regexp??

Re: [PHP] substr() on part an ereg() capture
couldn't you just do substr( $blah, 0, 55) or something similar?
