Since this thread is running I would like to know the gurus' opinons on the
similar following situation
Suppose there is a variable like this
$var = "This is a variable ";
Now I want to strip off white spaces on the end without losing them in the
middle of the sentence ..
I had figured that there is a no direct way of doing it and some thing like
this
works
$var = trim (ereg_replace(" ","",$var));
the first argument to ereg_replace is "two spaces" so that single spaces
between the words are not removed
then trim to remove any space on the end which may still remain.
But I feel its still not a fool proof solution because there may be two
spaces in between words some where also
which will then be clubbed together.
Any body has a better idea.
