If I'm putting together a list of links and I want to get add each
item one at a time inside a foreach($aNames as $sName) loop,
is there an easy way to get the number of pixels that the $aName
takes up?

For instance, in creating a set of links...

foreach($aLinks as $sLink) {
if ((pixelsize($sLink, $sFont, $iFontSize) . pixelsize($sHTML . " ", $sFont, $iFontSize)) < 400) {
$sHTML .= " " . $sLink;
} else {
$sHTML .= "<br />\n" . $sLink;
}
}

The goal is to keep the whole link on one and only one line letting
the browser automatically break up any given link.

Thanks,

Jim Carlock
