I'm feeling wrapped...

[tablex]

Hi,

Wondering if any1 could help me out here,
I tried a lot of times to use wordwrap, but for some reason it failed over and over again, so I searched the manual, and used the examples from the wordwrap function-list,and guess what they didn't work either, just a straight line as a result...

Could any1 explain,what is the problem, thanks in advance!

I tried these examples:

<?php
$text = "A very long woooooooooooord.";
$newtext = wordwrap( $text, 8, "\n", 1);

echo "$newtext\n";
exit;
$text = "The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.";
$newtext = wordwrap( $text, 20 );

echo "$newtext\n";
exit;
?>

Wordwrap does not insert <br>, it only inserts newlines. Browsers don't display newlines as line breaks.

Put the function's output between <pre>...</pre> tags, or simply do view source on the script's output - you'll see that it's working. If you want <br> instead of (or in addition to) \n, just do:

$text = str_replace("\n", "</br>\n", $text);

after the wordwrap function to replace it.
