A piece of hardware puts out a formatted report daily that I need to
extract the data from. There are 13 columns of information. The data in
the columns are from 1 to 5 possibly 6 places with no 0's as place holders.
What I need to do is remove all the spaces except 1 between all the
columns.
I thought about doing something like:
do{ $pos_start = $pos_start + 1; }
while ( !chr(32);
But that doesnt work.
Would someone give me a suggestion.

A correction to my last post -
$tmp = str_replace(' ', ' # ', $text);
the above will not match a space in the last colmn, best to use -
$tmp = str_replace(' ', ' #', $text);
Also REGEX loads a large payload so I generally don't load it (use it)
unless I am doing a lot of REGEX.
str_replace is much faster
