hi, i didn't find a function for this in the manual, but maybe there is one (or a workaround): does anyone have a solution for replacing multiple whitespaces with a single whitespace whitin a string? similar to trim(). maybe a regular expression? eg:
$string = 'word1   word2     word3';
$modified = preg_replace('|(\\s)+|','$1',$string);
$modified = 'word1 word2 word3';
