note 29402 added to function.strpos

There are a couple problems with the function(s) and code above for stripping spaces. The main problem is multiple spaces. For example, if someone entered "this is my answer! !!!". There would still be multiple spaces in the text after using the previously mentioned methods. The solution is to loop until there are no more multiple spaces. Here is my solution ... function StripSpaces ( $inputString ) { $inputString = trim($inputString); $pos = strpos($inputString, " "); while (is_integer($pos) && $pos > 0) { $inputString = str_replace(" ", " ", $inputString); $pos = strpos($inputString, " "); } return $inputString; } Sure, it could have been shorter but it is more readable in this form.
