<?php
function _split_text($text)
{
$MAX_LENGTH = 160;
 
  $split=explode(" ",$text);
  $numwords = count($split);
  $i=0; //while counter
  $a = 1; //counts the text chunks
 
  $amount = ceil(strlen($text)/($MAX_LENGTH-5)); //get total word chunks
  while($i < $numwords){
   $len = (strlen($newtext[$a])+strlen($split[$i])); //get length of the active chunk
     if($len>($MAX_LENGTH-5)){ //do we have to start a new one?
       $a++;
       $newtext[$a] = "[$a/$amount] "; //Adds [1/2]
     }else{
       if($i == 0) $newtext[$a] = "[$a/$amount] ";
