[Resolved] Text Kerning

[areid]

Is there a way that I can kern a particular text string? Or is there a way that I can insert spaces between each letter?

Ex: PHP is the coding of choice - P H P i s t h e c o d i n g o f c h o i c e

Thanks

there might be a better way, but just an idea. (not tested)

function kern($str) {

  $tmp = explode("",$str);
  $return = '';
  foreach ($tmp as $v) {
    $return .=$v." ";
  }

  return $return;

}

echo kern('aspsux');

Thanks for the reply. That sounds like a good idea, but I'm getting an Empty delimiter error.

Use [man]str_split[/man] instead of explode. (If you are using PHP5)

Thanks I'll look into that. I actually got this to work....

function kern($str) { 

  $len = strlen($str); 
  $i = 0;
  $kern_stg = "";
  while ($i < $len) {
  $kern_stg .= substr($str, $i, 1); 
  $kern_stg .= " ";
  $i++;
  }

  return $kern_stg; 

} 

echo kern('aspsux');
