Hello, I have a string (I quote here only) as: ' <table>...</table>' As you can see there are 3 spaces at the beginning, but it could be 0 or 4 or any number of spaces. How can I get a string with only the initial spaces part? ' <table>...</table>' -> ' ' 'hello' -> '' ' hello' -> ' ' Thanks. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
