there's a function "word_wrap()" (or is it "wordwrap()", something like that anyway) that'll help you there.

I have this DB where I'm storing this sometimes large amount of text into a TEXT field, but I can't seem to find the way to BREAK lines so it won't make my browser go 3000 pixels wide when that text is printed. About this, I have two questions: 1) What should I use to break the text into lines at the DB so HTML can read them fine? and 2) How should I make the TEXT INPUT BOX so the visitor doesn't have to type <br> or something after 20 words or so? Is there a way that PHP can count and break text strings by itself prior storing?
