But it might not be the best way to do it. $clean = preg_replace('|\s+|', ' ', $input); or $clean = preg_replace('|\s{2,}|', ' ', $input); If the white space is being generated in your HTML output, but is not in your data store, then you need to cleanup your PHP code and that might help. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
