shorten string php, string length php, clip string length php
I'm pretty sure i have done this function before but i cant find it due to the keywords being wrong!
Here is a function that takes a string and shortens it and adds .. to the end, with the rest of the string in a abbr tag.
PHP
$string = "The grid-column CSS shorthand property specifies a grid item's size and location within a grid column by contributing a line, a span, or nothing (automatic) to its grid placement, thereby specifying the inline-start and inline-end edge of its grid area.";
function short_string($string, $max_length = 200) {
$string = strip_tags($string);
if(strlen($string) <= $max_length) {
// just return the string, as its less than or equal the max_length already.
return $string;
} else {
$short_string = substr($string, 0, $max_length);
$additional_string = substr( $string, $max_length, strlen($string) );
return $to_return = $short_string . '<abbr title="' . $additional_string . '">...</abbr>';
}
}
// test short string return
echo short_string($string, $max_length = 100);
