Cut long urls EVERYWHERE

Ok. .I've made a static board.. blame me.. but I can't just made it 100% wide now (Too lazy to do so..).. so I need help.

At some pages (mostly on online.php) I get very, VERY long urls that really mess up my forum. I need to make it so thatif it's more than x characters long, it'll be cutted and added a ... on it.. so it changes this:

Code:

<a href="http://domain.com/forum/longurl/verylongurl/messinglayout.htm">http://domain.com/forum/longurl/verylongurl/messinglayout.htm</a>

to this:

Code:

<a href="http://domain.com/forum/longurl/verylongurl/messinglayout.htm">http://domain.com/forum/...out.htm</a>

I've found this piece of code:

Code:

$maxchars=20;

  if (strlen($thread['title']) > $maxchars) {

    $thread['title'] = substr($thread['title'], 0, $maxchars - 2) . '...';

  }

but I'm not sure on how to apply it to ANY url written. I'm sure the code should be at global.php but I have no idea on how to set the variables.

You would need to hack the handle_bbcode_url() function to include that element onthe $text variable in there...

hmm... that sounds kinda.. hard.. and I'm very new at this... I think I'll set it up only for the online.php urls... since that's the place that's messing the layout the most... thnx for the reply natch!
