I have articles in a MySQL database and I want creating a fast brows
where people can read the beginning of the articles and select
the ones they want to read.
How do I only display the first say 50 chars of a 5000 char article?
$count = 1;
while(($row = mysql_fetch_array($News)) or
also add LIMIT 15 to your query. no point in getting all that info if you
want 15 results.
