Is there a function that counts the number of words in a string?
I checked through the manual and archives using 'word count', and found
nothing. I suppose it is possible to generate code that will accomplish this,
using 'space' as the delimiting separator. But before I re-invent the wheel .

I don't recall there being one. But, you could do this:
$array = preg_split('/\s+/', $string);
echo count($array);
