One of best and unknown built in string function included in .NET is String.Split(). It has come in quite handy for my in the last 2 years that I thought I'd share. Pretty basic example here...and for my first post, I thought I'd throw in a little File IO (for free of course)! This was written in .NET 2.0 and it will take little to no modification to make it work in 1.0/1.1.

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.
