I'm using this to display some testimonials as the 'quotes' and it works fine. Problem is that some testimonials are a tad longer than others and i'd like to limit the number of characters that it displays in order to create some consistency in how much space it takes up. What code would I need to put in place in order to limit the number of characters in the display?

Thanks in advance.

Open rantex.php in Notepad and just ABOVE line

Code: Select all

/* Output the image according to the selected type */

paste this

Code: Select all

$txt = substr($txt,0,50);

This code will limit the output to 50 chars (change 50 to the length you need).
