Is this a bug, or an undocumented feature.;-) That's pretty weird... Check the MagicQuotes settings in your php.ini to make sure they are sane. And, I guess, maybe, an Option key on a Mac being stuck down could do that, or something, since that gives some weird non-ASCII space character... Is this a new install, or any recent changes or...? Maybe print out the ASCII values of the data you're getting to be sure it really is a pipe after each space, and not some other weird character being put in place of a space.
