i was thinking of of some accessibility issues and...

say i have a large pipece of text in a file only with some basic html formatting. now i would like to break the text into seperate pages. how would i go about this. i have a few ideas of my own like putting a seperator into the text (which i guess is the way to do it). but is there a way oif automateing this? been thinking of using something like htmlArea...just looking for some sugestions really..

thanks

I'd steer away from HTMLArea since this is likely to bring extra tags into your code that you don't want, or won't validate.

I'd come up with some pagebreak symbol like <!--PAGEBREAK--> and use explode() to divide the page up into an array of subpages -

$pagearray = explode('<!--PAGEBREAK-->', $yourtxtfile);

then it's a matter of figuring how to save them and properly reference them (w/links) in your system.
