get rid of rest

hi
im making a small chat program, im sending a string
that the user tyes in but i want to get rid of the rest that
is stored in the string after the user has typed in his message
so only the string that the user typed will be sent i think its some cin funktion but i dont remember it.

Grammar, punctuation, spelling, etc. corrected by Hunter2.

char buf[MAX_STRING_SIZE]
cin.getline(buf, MAX_STRING_SIZE)

send() only what you want to send. See parameter #3, len, on MSDN.
