no the space does not matter
use the substr function:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.substr.php, for example to limit the description to 12 characters:
$WA_PP_ECO_Do_itemized[1][$nextIndex] = "".$cartName->DisplayInfo("Name") ." - ".substr($cartName->DisplayInfo("Description"),0,12)."" ;
here is an example using a hyphen:
$WA_PP_ECO_Do_itemized[1][$nextIndex] = "".$cartName->DisplayInfo("Name") ." - ".$cartName->DisplayInfo("Description")."" ;
you have to substitute your cart name in the code, in my example code, i used $cartName as the name of the car object. you need to adjust accordingly, for example::
$cartName->DisplayInfo("Colour")
should be:
$LEDCart->DisplayInfo("Colour")
