decrease length of products_name

[Mister_dj]

Hi all,

 

I want to decrease the length of the products_name that is shown on the index page (new_products.php) and on the invoice.

The reason why I want to do this is beacause long product names are breaking my layout.

 

Is it possible to break apart the product name and show some tekst (like: more or ...) when let's say 35 characters are being used.

 

Kind regards

Wim

You can do this from the mysql statement

or by php
