| Summary | 0005131: Trim filter values | ||||
| Description | You realy should trim value displayed in filter. | ||||

| Tags | No tags attached. | ||||

I'd suggest that for display purposes, the length of the string should be limited to a programmable value (say, 25 characters). If a string is longer than that, it can be split into two with an elipsis placed in between. Thus, 'a really long custom filter value that I tried' would display as 'a really long cust...tried'. Comments? |

Add trim length into config_default If possible dont cut in middle of a word |

I've coded this and am looking for feedback. Here are some examples: "short topic" renders as "short topic" "topic" renders as "topic" "doc-0000000-twest.string-end.php" renders as "doc-0000000-twest.string...php" "a really long and boring string that doesnt fit" renders as "a really long and boring...fit" "http://ca.php.net/manual/en/control-structures.break.php" renders as "http://ca.php.net/manual...php" "http://bugs.mantisbt.org/view.php?id=5131" renders as "http://bugs.mantisbt...id=5131" |
