how to make database item unique

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Hey guys,

is it possible to do this:

I have the database item $title being pulled for the title and the actual clickable part of a link.

Is it possible to make the $title in the link title unique?

I ask because i'm truncating the clickable text with this code:

Code: $maxChars = 28;
if(strlen($row['album']) > $maxChars) {
$row['album'] = substr($row['album'], 0, $maxChars - 3);
$row['album'] .= "...";
}
and the link title shows the truncated version to. If i could make the clickable link or the title $title unique then i could have the full db item for the title and still have it truncated for the clickable text.

Anyone know if this is possible?
