You can't do that...deleting ALL spaces will screw up your content...
Try str_replace("\n","",$var) to strip newlines, then a
preg_replace("/\s+/"," ",$var) to strip all multiple spaces down to
one...
Haven't tested this syntax, but should be about right...

Hi,

I take that you simply want to remove ALL whitespaces
from a data block (variable).

you could simply use str_replace(" ", "", $var);
