   Hey, I'm trying to use the following to limit my post topics to 30 characters, but it doesn't see to work with the function that retrieves the data.

   <?php
   $post-string = the_title();
   substr($post-string, 0, 30);
   ?>

   Does anyone know how to do this? I would like it to appear like the following:

   "This is a post topic exam..."
   "Here is another post that..." // Cuts off after so many characters and puts three dots.

   Thanks in advance to any advice!
