As you probably know, Twitter only accepts messages of 140 characters or less. If you want to interact with the popular social messaging site, you’ll enjoy this function for sure, which will allow you to truncate your message to 140 characters.
function split_to_chunks($to,$text){
$total_length = (140 - strlen($to));
$text_arr = explode(" ",$text);
$i=0;
$message[0]="";
foreach ($text_arr as $word){
if ( strlen($message[$i] . $word . ' ') >= $total_length ){
if ($text_arr[count($text_arr)-1] == $word){
$message[$i] .= $word;
} else {
$message[$i] .= $word . ' ';
}
} else {
$i++;
if ($text_arr[count($text_arr)-1] == $word){
$message[$i] = $word;
} else {
$message[$i] = $word . ' ';
}
}
}
return $message;
}
