Preventing Long Text

[l0rdrayven]

Guys can anyone share the code on how to prevent the long text messages without spaces such as like this one.

Gmgmgmgmgmgmgmgmgmgmgmgmgm

It destroy my site fit to browser screen cause it causes scoll to left functions of mobile browsers.
I just want to put a limit then space down automatically will take the rest.
I dont know if i explain it will.
I think it can be done in css body style but i dont know what is the code,
in php script i think it was started with if(strlen etc,etc..,
Thanks for the help..

Its not the function to substract the text, linebreak will take the action to move the next text in the next line instead of letting the text or message go further to the left..
Hope that you will comprehend what i mean.

.text{
width: 160px;
}

echo "<div id=\"text\">";
echo $text;
echo "</div>"; 

[subzero]

.text{
width: 160px;
}

to

#text{
width: 160px;
}

Thanks bro i tried it in my css .text{width: 160px;} but it is not working, long text without spaces keeps go further to the left side of my site..

.test to #text

i made a error not you

Ok bro i will try it..
But how about in php code..
If im not mistaken it was something
like this...

$text = if(strlen($text>20))&& etc, etc,

I dont know whats next but im sure that code was type befor the text declare...
echo "$text";
but much better if we were goin to make it in css for overall function isnt it?

[subzero]

it will change to

awshfjasifksdjfk jkwdfjkasjckmj wefjaqjdwkwaesqjdfkj jaskrjkwkwdejksda fcawesjfrksaejfkejwfkj kjrkjwekjwefkj

to

awshfjasifksdjfk jkwdfjkasjckmj
wefjaqjdwkwaesqjdfkj jaskrjkw
fcawesjfrksaejfkejwfkj kjrkjwekj


it will keep the text on the size you want it to be...

if (strlen($text>160)){@mysql_query(update.....)}else {
}
this is it

[l0rdrayven]

It is still not working in css bro subzero..
For instance i will post something like this

gmgmgmgmgmgmgmgmgmgmgmgmgmgmgmgmgmgmgmgmgmgmgmgmgm gm

text without spaces, in my site it will go further to the left that cause the page scroll to the left functions..

I just want to prevent it or put a maximum characters per line and the rest will be posted to the next line itself..

use CSS to hide the overflow text!

ex:
body{
overflow:hidden;}


---------
LoL!

[something else]

Heres An AntiFlood Function Iv Just Made:

function antiflood($text){
$text=str_replace("%20"," ",$text);
$words=explode(" ",$text);
for($i=0;$i<count($words); $i++){
if(strlen($words[$i])>20){
return "AntiFlood Protection";
}
}
return $text;
} 

Usage:

$text=antiflood($text); 

Hope It Helps

(Its Limited To 20 Letters Per Word ATM)

try to add this in your core.. bbcode

$text = preg_replace('{( ?.)\1{4,}}','$1$1$1',$text);
//result: aaabbcccaaad d d ddde




To prevent any repetitions of characters, you only need this

$text = preg_replace('{(.)\1+}','$1',$text);
//Result: abcad d d d d d d de
