Note Submitter: mfdz dot com - address is jchris ---- This function recursively replaces multiple instances of the same character, taking it down to a maximum of one. If you have say, a list of tags like (with a arbitrary number of spaces where you want only one): $tags = "php function string cleaning"; r_str_replace(" "," ",$tags); will return a version with only one space between words, ie: "php function string cleaning". function r_str_replace($original, $replace, $string) { $output = str_replace($original, $replace, $string, $count); if ($count == 0) return $output; $output = r_str_replace ($original, $replace ,$output); return $output; }
