Or this one works too :)

<?php

function repairString($input) {
  while(($ninput=ereg_replace("  "," ",$input))!=$input) { $input = $ninput; }
  return trim($ninput);
}

print repairString("this is  a    test "); // prints "this is a test"

?>

Well, you can make your own function to to that:

<?php

function repairString($input) {
  $string = NULL;
  $iTmp=explode(" ",$input);
  foreach($iTmp as $word) { if($word!="") $string.="$word "; }
  return trim($string);
}

print repairString("this is  a    test "); // prints "this is a test"

?>
