[Cassidy, Michael]

How about displaying for the first 125 spaces; that should get you close to
250 words

Subject: Re: [nycphp-talk] strpos with space

Same result, and I also tried replacing $words altogether with 250 just to
test that, and still the same result.

As a side note, the . str_word_count($text) is there for debugging purposes
and I didn't get around to taking it out.
