Hi again,
You might want to try using strlen($var_name) to see if they are the
same length. If they aren't then you can use substr to shorten the
string.
$var = "abcdefg";
substr($var, 3); // outputs "defg"
substr($var, 2, 3); // outputs "cde"
You might also just need rtrim($text) which is like chomp in Perl.
Hope this helps.
