Alex1646 Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 I'm creating a website where writers can share stories. I have a section where the users enter a summary of there story. Anyways in the area where the story in being listed I want the the title of the story(with a link to the story) underneath the link I would like a summary. BUUUUT, the summary can get pretty long(up to 900 chars). So I am wondering if I can shorten the variable where the summary is stored, I want it to be shorten to a fixed amount of characters(maybe 200?) then followed by a ... . So how can I do this?
