I want to implement a "read more" feature when I'm displaying content. I want to cut off the text either at 6 lines or by number of words (but prefer by lines, unless you have different advice).
I'm guessing I will have to use javascript for this and calculate the text cutoff somehow. But I'm not quite sure what I should be doing, and if there's any calculation or other steps to do on the php end. Can someone give me some advice? Are there jquery plugins that could help with this?
