   hello people, its Bobinder here and my question is:

   How do I collapse a div within a post, if the "wordcount" relating to that post is less then X amount?

   appreciate any insight you can shed on this topic =D

   I can't think of any easy way to do this. Javascript in posts is tricky in WordPress, see:

   Conditional php with a post character count variable might work, but not within a post.

   you have a fair point there iridiax. do you think you can write me a Conditional php with a post character count variable? creating a php from scratch...is tricky for a complete novice aka me!

   help me out please, if your solution does work i'll work around it!

   Sorry, I'm not that advanced a php coder. The only conditional php I've used is from here:
