php - PHP 配列を切り捨てるには?

Question

重複
の可能性: PHP 配列を切り捨てる方法

MySQL テーブルのテキストを表示する配列があります。データを一定の長さ（未定）に切り捨て、切り捨ての最後に「... Read more」を追加したい。

関連するコードブロックは次のとおりです。

while($rows = mysql_fetch_array($getNews)){
                  $id = $rows['id'];
                  $title = strip_tags(stripslashes($rows['title']));
                  $editor1 = $show->news_article = stripslashes(html_entity_decode($rows['editor1']));
                  $poster = $rows['poster'];
                  $date = $rows['date'];

(スクリプトは機能し、データを表示します。スクリプト全体を次に示します:)

<?php

    switch ($number) {        
    }
    return $colour;
}
// For the header
$colour = 1;

    // Clean the submitted form
    $comment = cleanTag($_POST['comment']);
    $name = cleanTag($_POST['name']);
    $tstamp = time();
        $ip = getenv("REMOTE_ADDR");
    $id = cleanTag($_POST['id']);

    if(!$id){
        die("Oops: Unexpected error!");
    }
    if($name == "" || $comment == ""){
        die("You cannot leave any fields blank");
    }
    // Insert the comment
    mysql_query("INSERT INTO comments_articles (comment, name, article, tstamp, ip) VALUES ('{$comment}', '{$name}', '{$id}', '{$tstamp}', '{$ip}')") or die(mysql_error());
