When I try to trim the text length of a CCK URL field, it trims the text of the full markup rather than just the title which is displayed.

Is it possible to just trim the displayed portion of the returned text rather than the full markup? I don't care how long the link is, but I do need to control how many characters in the node title are displayed an hot-linked.

This probably needs to be filed against the module providing the field (I forget if CCK provides this itself) -- it has to support the Views API correctly in 2.3 for the link to be separated from the general text. Modules that are not updated won't do this.

I couldn't transfer this to the link project for some reason, so I recreated it.
