[RESOLVED] slicing a paragraph

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Sep 08.2006

Hi all

I have a small text and I want to slice up till the full stop.Something like this.

$str=”Hello John How are you.I am fine.I have not seen you so many days.”;

I have 2 rows.In first row it will display upto first (.) and left of the string will be displayed in the 2nd row.

So the o/p will be

1st row:

Hello John How are you.

2nd row:
I am fine.I have not seen you so many days.

Thats it.I think it may be done through substr function but really I dont have any idea about how to check the 1st full stope

I was using like this before

$str= substr($str,0,100);

Please suggest me an idea.

Thanks in advance for your co-operation……Raj

Its solved.I have use this method:

if(false !== ($position = strpos($str, '.')))

{

$part_one = substr($str, 0, $position + 1);

$part_two = substr($str, $position + 1);

}

Also thanks for another solution.
