Hy everybody,  
in my radiant site I’m using the search extension and it’s works very  
well.  
I’ve tried to use the \<r:truncate\_and\_strip [length=“100”] /\> tag but I  
don’t understand very well how does it work.  
I need to display a snippet of the found pages and i tried this piece of  
code:

\<r:search:results:each\>

### 

but it dosen’t work very well.  
Can someone explain me how does this tag works maybe with a small  
example?

Thanks and greatings
