Re: count characters without space

> who knowes how to count the charcaters in a string without the space > character? Using a regular expression to strip out all the spaces before passing to the word counting function seems easiest. You'll be left to adapt it to PHP, but the regexp is: 's/ //g' That removes all spaces. If it gives an error, try s/\ //g to escape the space. Pass the result to whatever you use to count the number of characters. -Jeff SIG: HUP
