function trimDescription(p_String, p_Length) {
/*
if it the length is greater then the no of words in the article, return the string
*/if (p_Length > p_String.length) {
return p_String;
}/*
Split the string up on the spaces
*/splitString = p_String.split(" ");
var trimmedString = "";
for (a=0; a < p_Length; a++) {
trimmedString += " " + splitString[a];
}
return trimmedString;
}
Usage -
Top of page ---
In table cell
note : this is a very cheap & nasty way of doing this... does not account for leading and/or trailing spaces...
Hope this helps (works for me!)
