Essentially, you check the length of the given string. If it’s longer than a given length n, clip it to length n (substr or slice) and add html entity … (…) to the clipped string. Such a method looks like function truncate(str, n){ return (str.length > n) ? str.substr(0, n-1) + ‘…’ : str; }; … Read more
If you want to preserve the previous contents of the file up to some length (a length bigger than zero, which other answers provide), then POSIX provides the truncate() and ftruncate() functions for the job. #include <unistd.h> int ftruncate(int fildes, off_t length); int truncate(const char *path, off_t length); The name indicates the primary purpose – … Read more
//The simple version for 10 Characters from the beginning of the string $string = substr($string,0,10).’…’; Update: Based on suggestion for checking length (and also ensuring similar lengths on trimmed and untrimmed strings): $string = (strlen($string) > 13) ? substr($string,0,10).’…’ : $string; So you will get a string of max 13 characters; either 13 (or less) … Read more
