Limited Words

[rareyush]

I'm trying to display body part but as a summary which doesn't include any image.

 

I was able to get limit the words by using this function

 

<?PHP
  function truncateWords($input, $numwords, $padding="")
  {
    $output = strtok($input, " \n");
    while(--$numwords > 0) $output .= " " . strtok(" \n");
    if($output != $input) $output .= $padding;
    return $output;
  }
?>

but if there is an image it show that image as well.

 

any api or anything which I can use to use show just limited text ?????

Welcome to the forum @rareyush ... Sanitizer can help in this case which cleans up the text.
https://processwire.com/api/variables/sanitizer/

Try the following:

$p_body = $sanitizer->text($key->body,['maxLength' => 250]);
echo "<p>{$p_body}</p>";
