I have a function loosely based on the following tutorial from zend.com.
(http://www.zend.com/zend/tut/tutorial-brogdon2.php)
However, instead of using plain-text I am using results with html tags.

 For example, the results may have <b>This</b>is some text that has been
inputted from a form.  When I use my function it simply takes this string
and counts  the number of words and then stops at a length desired and
returns the text.  Now, here is my problem.  If I don't call my function it
displays fine, but I have to display the entire result since I do not want
to stop in the middle of a word.  If I call my function it displays the
summary correctly if there are no html tags in it.  However, if I call my
function and there are html tags then it strips the < > off of the html tag
and displays the text in between the angle brackets.

Here is my function (forgive me if I am taking the wrong way this is my baby
step at php)

If anybody has a better way I would appreciate it,

Thank you,

Erik  Meyer
