This function calculates how many lines will text occupy.
Example (simple):
$string = "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Phasellus tincidunt posuere dolor";
$num_lines = how_many_lines(10, $string);
It accepts a third, optional, parameter $options, that allows you to change behaviour. $options should be array. Following configuration options are available:
'white_spaces' - default: array(' ', "\t") - array of chars, that should be treated as whitespace.
'new_lines' - default: array("\r\n", "\n") - array of strings, that should be treated as newlines. For example, for HTML you can set 'new_lines' => array('');
'force_line_breaks' - default: true - force wrapping, when the token is longer than width, or not. If set to false, and token cannot be fitted into $width, function will return false;
'callback' - default: null - callback function for determining character width. Must accept at least one parameter - $char
'callback_params' - default: array() - optional additional callback parameters
'char_widths' - default: null - associative array in a form $char => $width, which contains char width. If $char is not found in the array, it's width is defaulted to 0.

This snippet effectively reads an XML document using XPathDocument (read-only) instead of using the DOM. This snippet returns the full element values in between elements. For example:
root element
code element
This is a test.
/code element
/root element
GetXmlString("/root/code"); //returns 'This is a test.'
root element
code element
This is a test.
/code element
/root element
GetXmlString("/root/code"); //returns 'This is a test.'

If you have ever written a website or java application where people paste stuff in from Word, you are likely to have hit the problem of Word using high ascii chars for "open quotes", "close quotes", reg symbol, etc...
This java class (with a single static method) can replace the most prevalent of these with normal ascii values
Hope it helps someone...

Similar to Perl's CGI::escapeHTML(), though (because we can!) this adds it as a method to all String objects.
