Fw: [Magpierss-general] Re: RSS Title Length

[DJ W. <dj...@ho...>]

He ment:

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

Put it like this:

foreach ( $items1 as $item1 )
{
     $title1 = substr($item1[title], 0, 50);
     $url1   = $item1[link];
     echo "» <a href=$url1>".$title1."</a></li><br>\n";
}


Next time try more to read the manual people are refering to :)
