Hello All,
I am new to java scripting and need a little guidance. I am in the process of creating a web page that will contain a list of technical articles based on date. My objective is to have only the fist 200 characters display for each technical article listed and a "Read More" link to open a new page and display the full article. I am at the point where I have the page designed displaying the entire article (the information is being pulled from a field in a table) and the read more link. I am stuck at trying to limit the amount of characters displayed for each listed article.

Any ideas on how to go about this? If I need to provide more detail please advise.

Thank You
