If the white space is included in data coming from the db you could run
a simple little regex on the variable to removed any repetitive white
space. But it might not be the best way to do it.
$clean = preg_replace('|\s+|', ' ', $input);
or
$clean = preg_replace('|\s{2,}|', ' ', $input);
If the white space is being generated in your HTML output, but is not in
your data store, then you need to cleanup your PHP code and that might help.
