Re: [PHP] strip spaces from inside string

2002-04-05 Thread Michael Virnstein

the easiest way would be:

";
// 
// output:
// abcdefghi
// 
//
// or a regex:
$str = "abc def ghi";
$str = ereg_replace(" ", "", $str);
echo $str."";

//if you want to strip any whitespace character:
$str = "abc def ghi";
$str = preg_replace("/\s/", "", $str);
echo $str."";

// -
?>

preg_replace is quite powerful, so if you only want to strip
some spaces, you should prefer str_replace.
Always think about how many power you need.
str_replace -> ereg_replace -> preg_replace.

Say I have a string "xyz abc def"  and I want to remove all of the spaces
withing the string to create a new one.  What's the best way?

Thanks,

Or you can use eregi_replace(), but I don't know what the regex would be.
I *think* you can do:
