I want to count the words in a specific string , so I can validate it and prevent users to write more than 100 words for example .
I wrote this function but I don't think it's effective enough , I used the explode function with space as a delimiter but what if the user puts two spaces instead of one . can you give me a better way to do that ?
function isValidLength($text , $length){
$text = explode(" " , $text );
if(count($text) > $length)
return false;
else
return true;
}
Maybe str_word_count
could help

$Tag = 'My Name is Gaurav';
$word = str_word_count($Tag);
echo $word;
