Here is an excerpt function:

2
function excerpt($text, $phrase, $radius = 100, $ending = "...") {

if ($pos > -1) break;
}
$startPos = 0;
if ($pos > $radius) {
$startPos = $pos - $radius;
}
$textLen = strlen($text);
$endPos = $pos + $phraseLen + $radius;

$endPos = $textLen;
}
$excerpt = substr($text, $startPos, $endPos - $startPos);
if ($startPos != 0) {
