    I am working on a search results page that uses the standard WPMU search function. How can I display a set number of characters for each search result?

    How do I tie that in with the results though - to the WP call of the posts

    Um, why not just tell it to use post excerpts?

    Sweet. That's working. Now how can I make the excerpt like 20 words?
