Hi :)
I am using the following function (that I found in the user comments
on php.net manual) for trimming the number of words accepted via a

$string = str_replace("\n", "", $string);
$string = trim_text($string);
$string = str_replace("", "\n", $string);

Hi Richard,
I quickly realized this and fooled with a few variations. Also have to
take into account that the or the get counted as 1 or 2
words respectively, and so the trim can end up in the wrong place. I've
tried fiddling with counting the number of br's in the string and
adding that to
This would work if you replace the with -- Otherwise, it's
too likely to break up "" in the trim_text function and then you
end up with:
